CVE-2025-32433 Erlang/OTP SSH Pre-Auth RCE: Session Channel Eats Erlang Code

CVE-2025-32433 is a pre-authentication RCE in the Erlang/OTP SSH server, CVSS 10.0. After a standard SSH handshake, attackers send Erlang expressions (not normal shell commands) on the session channel — OTP SSH hands the string to the Erlang VM to evaluate before authentication, achieving unauthenticated RCE.

NetScaler accepts unauthenticated requests in VPN / ICA Proxy / CVPN / RDP Proxy / AAA modes, and the field in the login response XML reflects user input. An attacker can craft a payload that triggers memory overread, leaking NetScaler process memory contents including session tokens, configuration, and credentials.
