CitrixBleed 2 Strikes: CISA’s 24-Hour Patch Panic for Federal Agencies!
Federal agencies are in a patching frenzy as CISA confirms active exploitation of CitrixBleed 2 vulnerability. With only one day to apply fixes, it’s a race against cybercriminals who are already testing proof-of-concept exploits. CISA advises swift action, urging upgrades or limiting external access to prevent attackers from bleeding data dry.
Hot Take:
Oh, Citrix! You’ve done it again! Just when we thought we could take a breather after the first CitrixBleed, you drop another bomb on us with CitrixBleed 2. It’s like the sequel nobody asked for, but everyone has to deal with. CISA is not playing around this time, giving federal agencies a one-day deadline to patch things up. It’s a race against time, folks, and if you’ve got Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway, you’d better get to patching faster than you can say “critical memory safety vulnerability!”
