Citrix Workspace App for Windows Multiple Vulnerabilities (CTX691485)

high Nessus Plugin ID 207238

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of Citrix Workspace installed on the remote host is prior 2402 LTSR CU1 or 2405. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- Local privilege escalation allows a low-privileged user to gain SYSTEM privileges (Improper Control of a Resource Through its Lifetime) (CVE-2024-7889)

- Local privilege escalation allows a low-privileged user to gain SYSTEM privileges (Improper Privilage Management) (CVE-2024-7890)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Citrix Workspace version 2405 or 2402 LTSR CU1.
