This vulnerability affects the following supported versions of Citrix Workspace app for Windows: Citrix Workspace app 2002, 2006 and 2006.1 for Windows. This issue has been fixed in Citrix Workspace App. Users on Current Release of Workspace App are advised to upgrade to version 2002 or its replacement that contains the fix. Users on the LTSR version of Workspace App are advised to upgrade to version 1912 or its replacement that contains the fix. Issue Description.
Citrix Receiver 2002
The Citrix Workspace app Long Term Service Release (LTSR) is released on a less frequent cadence with an extended lifecycle than the Workspace app Current Releases (CR), offering predictability and less changes to the product. The Citrix Workspace app LTSR offers Cumulative Updates (CU) that contain fixes but no new functionalities. These CUs are deployed roughly once a quarter with an attempt to reduce the number of changes made in every following CU. With the release cycle and cadence in consideration, Citrix is omitting Citrix Embedded Browser from the Workspace app 1912 LTSR for Windows. This removal of the embedded browser is to ensure product predictability due to the fact that the Embedded Browser needs updated on a more frequent cadence than the CUs allow.
Questions and Answers
