05 Oct 2026, 2:40 PM	The Hacker News	3.0	New NetScaler Zero-Day Exploited in Targeted Attacks Can Knock SAML Deployments Offline Citrix patched CVE-2026-88779, a CVSS 8.7 memory overflow in NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway that has been exploited in targeted zero-day attacks and can cause denial-of-service when the appliance is configured as a SAML service provider or identity provider. Patches are in NetScaler ADC/Gateway 14.1-73.41+, 13.1-64.28+, 14.1-FIPS 14.1-73.41+, and 13.1-FIPS/13.1-NDcPP 13.1-37.282+. Citrix says it has not identified impact on customer data integrity, but repeated triggering may leave the service unavailable. Why: Only teams self-managing NetScaler ADC/Gateway with SAML SP or IdP config need to act: check for 'add authentication samlAction' or 'add authentication samlIdPProfile', then upgrade to the listed versions; everyone else can treat this as low priority. The text provides no Malaysian or Southeast Asian-specific impact, so local relevance is limited to organizations running that stack. security citrix-netscaler saml zero-day denial-of-service
