A networking appliance used to assure the availability of clinical applications and a virtual private network each made by Citrix both contain flaws that are under active exploitation by Chinese state-sponsored hackers.

U.S. federal authorities and Citrix both are urging users to patch the flaw, tracked as CVE-2022-27518.

“These vulnerabilities are known to be actively exploited by a Chinese state-sponsored advanced persistent threat,” says the Department of Health and Human Services’ Health Sector Cybersecurity Coordination Center in an alert issued Friday.
