Believe MS is unaffected as they don't use openSSL, they roll their own 
code for that functionality which was not affected.

But of course do your own checking :)

Look for an update regarding ssl soon. A new advisory will incorporate the 
recently discovered exploits and heartbleed together. 

I can tell you that in both instances, Jeremy is right on. Web interface 
as coded and provided by Citrix does not include or use vulnerable code 
related to heartbleed or open ssl.

But the underlying web host could and should be checked and mitigated if 
necessary.

That’s right Al. Web Interface itself is not vulnerable, but possibly the 
underlying IIS instance. The security team just needs to check that as 
they would with any other IIS instance.

Hi All,
 
Our security team are concerned about heartbleed with the citrix 
webinterface server, however Im not so sure there is a vulnerability 
there, after reading the below I don’t think web interface is affected, 
can anyone out there confirm?

“Citrix Web Interface: Web Interface makes use of the TLS functionality 
provided by the underlying web server. Citrix customers are advised to 
verify that any deployed web servers used to host Web Interface are not 
vulnerable to these issues. Web Interface can also use a built-in TLS 
library to make outgoing TLS connections, this library is not vulnerable 
to these CVEs”.
 
Thanks
