CitrixBleed 2: A New Threat or Just Déjà Vu for Cybersecurity?
The U.S. CISA adds Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway flaw, dubbed CitrixBleed 2, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. This vulnerability, a sequel with a CVSS score of 9.3, lets attackers swipe session cookies. It’s like the 2023 exploit, but back with more drama than a reality TV reunion.
Hot Take:
CitrixBleed 2 is back, and it’s like a sequel no one asked for! Just like a movie franchise that should have stopped at the first installment, CitrixBleed 2 is here to remind us that some things should just stay in the past. While Citrix users were just getting comfortable with their remote access setups, along comes CVE-2025-5777 to make them question their life choices and session tokens. Let’s hope the third installment is never released—because no one needs a trilogy of cyber doom!
