CVE-2022-21827 not in scope of NetScaler ADM Security Advisory
The CVE-2022-21827 impacts the NetScaler Gateway plug-in for Windows supported versions prior to 21.9.1.2.
The detection and remediation of vulnerabilities impacting the NetScaler Gateway plug-in for Windows is not supported by the NetScaler ADM. Also, NetScaler Gateway plug-in vulnerabilities cannot be assessed by performing any checks on ADC side, verifying the ADC version, or by checking the ADC configuration. The detection and remediation for this CVE can only be assessed based on the version of the NetScaler Gateway plug-in for Windows deployed on the client.
一个s a result, the detection and remediation of this vulnerability is out of NetScaler ADM Security Advisory scope.
For more information, seeUnsupported CVEs in Security Advisory。

StyleBooks
Updates of the StyleBook configuration pack are automatically reconciled
Sometimes, updating a StyleBook configuration pack that is deployed on an ADC instance can have differences from its deployed state. In such cases, the configuration pack update fails. The StyleBook engine now automatically reconciles these differences and updates the configuration pack. Earlier, a message appeared on the GUI that needed your confirmation to reconcile the changes before updating the configuration pack.
[NSADM-80660]
Manage data sources in ADM
Defining a data source in NetScaler ADM helps you to use data from external sources as an input while creating or updating StyleBook configurations. Otherwise, you have to explicitly supply each input required by the StyleBook. In NetScaler ADM, you can use any managed ADC instance as a data source for the input to a StyleBook configuration. In NetScaler ADM, you can use the managed ADC instances as data sources. You can also define custom data sources which can serve as input when creating or updating configurations. To view custom data sources, go to一个pplications > Configuration > Data Sources。
Use thedatum
built-in type in the StyleBook definition to define a data source.
Example:
parameters:-name:selected-lblabel:Select an existing ADCtype:datumrequired:truedata-source:type:managed-adc
In this example, thedatum
parameter is used to define themanaged-adc
data source. This data source allows you to retrieve data from the ADC instances managed by NetScaler ADM.
[NSADM-80659]
Check the StyleBook compatibility for a configuration pack
When you are changing the StyleBook for a configuration pack in the ADM GUI, you can now determine the changes from the newly selected StyleBook definition. And, how these changes affect the configuration pack. With this information, you can make necessary updates to the StyleBook definition before changing it. Or, you can decide to continue with the existing StyleBook.
For example, if you change the StyleBook for a configuration pack, the existing StyleBook can have an allowed port HTTPS whereas the newly selected StyleBook can have SSL. In this case, you may need to edit the same HTTPS values for SSL port as well.

Use the StyleBook’s reserved keywords for parameters and expressions
You can now use the reserved keywords when you define parameters and expressions in a StyleBook definition. The reserved keywords are as follows:
"and", "false", "in", "not", "true", "or"
For example, a parameter namednot
is now a valid parameter ($parameters.not
).
[NSADM-80657]
StyleBooks support nested parameter-conditions
In a StyleBook definition, you can now specify a parameter condition within a parameter condition. These conditions are called nested parameter conditions and use a repeat construct to define these conditions. The nested parameter conditions are useful when you want to apply an action to each item of a list parameter.
Example:
parameters-conditions:-repeat:$parameters.lbvserversrepeat-item:lbvserverparameters-conditions:-target:$lbvserver.portaction:set-allowed-valuescondition:$lbvserver.protocol == "HTTPS"value:$parameters.ssl-ports
In this example, when the user selects the HTTPS protocol for a load balancing virtual server, the port values are dynamically populated. And, it applies for each load balancing virtual servers in the list.
For more information, seeNested parameter conditions。
