13.1 prior to 13.1-63.21, or 14.1 prior to 14.1-73.32, or 13.1-FIPS/NDcPP prior to 13.1-37.277, or 14.1-FIPS
prior to 14.1-73.32. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - Authentication bypass using an alternate path in NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway when the appliance
    is configured as a Gateway (SSL VPN, ICA Proxy, CVPN, RDP Proxy) or an AAA virtual server, subject to
    version-specific SAML action requirements. (CVE-2026-19490)

  - Memory overflow vulnerability in NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway leading to unpredictable behavior or
    Denial of Service if SIP ALG (Session Initiation Protocol Application Layer Gateway) is enabled on a
    Large Scale NAT (LSN) group configuration. (CVE-2026-19489)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported
version number.");
