Service interrupt via SIP ALG overflow
Published Aug 19, 2026 · Updated Aug 20, 2026
Memory overflow in Citrix NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway before 14.1-73.32 and 13.1-63.21 allows remote attackers to interrupt service. Citrix describes the flaw only as a memory overflow, but states that it is reachable when SIP ALG is enabled on a Large Scale NAT group configuration, indicating unsafe handling of SIP traffic in that processing path; no function-level details are public. Exposure requires an LSN deployment with SIP ALG enabled, and the published impact is bounded to unpredictable behavior or denial of service rather than confirmed code execution.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=13.1 <=63.21
- Affected versionversion=14.1 <=73.32
