CVE-2017-17549
Status: ModifiedMedium (5.9)—
Citrix NetScaler Application Delivery Controller (ADC) and NetScaler Gateway 10.5 before build 67.13, 11.0 before build 71.22, 11.1 before build 56.19, and 12.0 before build 53.22 allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from the backend client TLS handshake by leveraging use of TLS with Client Certificates and a Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral (DHE) key exchange.
CVSS
- Version: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
- Base score: 5.9
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.57%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 74
- Score date: 10/1/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
