The Independent Management Architecture (IMA) service (ImaSrv.exe) in Citrix MetaFrame XP 1.0 and 2.0, and Presentation Server 3.0 and 4.0, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (service exit) via a crafted packet that causes the service to access an unmapped memory address and triggers an unhandled exception.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a remote denial-of-service issue in legacy Citrix MetaFrame and Presentation Server products. A malformed network packet can crash the IMA service, potentially disrupting farm management or application delivery operations. The provided sources do not show data theft or code execution. Exposure is most likely in legacy Citrix environments still running MetaFrame XP or Presentation Server 3.x/4.x with the IMA service reachable from untrusted or broad internal networks. Treat this as a legacy availability risk. It is not described as data compromise, but a crashable Citrix management service can disrupt business operations where old Citrix farms remain in production. Mitigation focus: Identify any remaining MetaFrame XP or Presentation Server 3.0/4.0 systems.; Review Citrix CTX111186 for vendor-confirmed remediation or operational guidance.; Restrict network access to the IMA service to trusted administrative segments..
