Citrix ShareFile Vulnerabilities Expose User Files

Citrix this week announced that updates released for Citrix ShareFile storage zones controllers address several information disclosure vulnerabilities.


ShareFile is a content collaboration, file sharing and sync solution that provides users with the option to painlessly share documents. For enterprises, the service includes a storage zones controller and the User Management Tool, allowing customers to manage their own data storage.
