Path Traversal / LFI in Citrix ADC, Gateway, and SD-WAN WANOP
CVE-2020-8195 is an improper input validation vulnerability in Citrix ADC and Citrix Gateway before 13.0-58.30, 12.1-57.18, 12.0-63.21, 11.1-64.14, and 10.5-70.18, and Citrix SD-WAN WANOP before 11.1.1a, 11.0.3d, and 10.2.7. The provided content characterizes the issue as a path traversal vulnerability enabling local file inclusion and file-read verification.
