A Quick Update on Scanning for CVE-2019-19781 (Citrix ADC / Gateway Vulnerability), (Tue, Jan 7th)

For the last week, I have been monitoring our honeypot logs for evidence of exploits taking advantage of CVE-2019-19781. Currently, I have not seen an actual “exploit” being used. But there is some evidence that people are scanning for vulnerable systems. Based on some of the errors made with these scans, I would not consider them “sophisticated.” There is luckily still no public exploit I am aware of. But other sources I consider credible have indicated that they were able to create a code execution exploit.
