High [CVE-2026-20296] SPL Command Safeguards Bypass through Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in Deployment Server in Splunk Enterprise
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.1, 10.2.5, 10.0.8, and 9.4.13, and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 10.5.2605.0, 10.4.2604.7, 10.3.2512.16, 10.2.2510.18, and 10.1.2507.24, an attacker could trick a user that holds a role with the `list_deployment_server` capability into running arbitrary Search Processing Language (SPL) searches on their behalf as `splunk-system-user`, allowing for access to stored credentials and indexed data. The vulnerability is possible because Deployment Server endpoints in Splunk Web do not validate Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) tokens on GET requests, and caller-supplied input is not correctly neutralized before it is placed into an SPL search.
High [CVE-2026-20297] Path Traversal through 'explicit_appname' in the App Install REST Endpoint in Splunk Enterprise
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.1, 10.2.5, 10.0.8, 9.4.13, and 9.3.14, and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 10.5.2605.0, 10.4.2604.6, 10.2.2510.18, and 10.1.2507.24, a user who holds a role that contains the `edit_local_apps` and `install_apps` capabilities could cause a legitimate app installation to write files outside the intended app directory, into `$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/` and its subdirectories. The vulnerability is caused by a path traversal in the app installation workflow, which does not restrict the installation path to the intended app directory.
High [CVE-2024-53247] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.3.2, 9.2.4, and 9.1.7, and versions below 3.4.261 and 3.7.13 of the Splunk Secure Gateway…

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10 and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 9.1.2312.200, a low-privileged user that does not hold the admin or power Splunk roles could create notifications in Splunk Web Bulletin Messages that all users on the instance receive.
High [CVE-2024-36985] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10, a low-privileged user that does not hold the admin or power Splunk…
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10, a low-privileged user that does not hold the admin or power Splunk roles could cause a Remote Code Execution through an external lookup that references the “splunk_archiver“ application.

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10 on Windows, an authenticated user could execute a specially crafted query that they could then use to serialize untrusted data. The attacker could use the query to execute arbitrary code.
High [CVE-2024-36983] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10 and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 9.1.2312.109 and…
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10 and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 9.1.2312.109 and 9.1.2308.207, an authenticated user could create an external lookup that calls a legacy internal function. The authenticated user could use this internal function to insert code into the Splunk platform installation directory. From there, the user could execute arbitrary code on the Splunk platform Instance.
High [CVE-2024-36982] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10 and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 9.1.2312.109 and…

High [CVE-2024-29946] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.1, 9.1.4, and 9.0.9, the Dashboard Examples Hub lacks protections for risky SPL commands
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.1, 9.1.4, and 9.0.9, the Dashboard Examples Hub lacks protections for risky SPL commands. This could let attackers bypass SPL safeguards for risky commands in the Hub. The vulnerability would require the attacker to phish the victim by tricking them into initiating a request within their browser.
High [CVE-2024-29945] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.1, 9.1.4, and 9.0.9, the software potentially exposes authentication tokens during the…
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.1, 9.1.4, and 9.0.9, the software potentially exposes authentication tokens during the token validation process. This exposure happens when either Splunk Enterprise runs in debug mode or the JsonWebToken component has been configured to log its activity at the DEBUG logging level.
High [CVE-2023-46230] Splunk Add-on: In Splunk Add-on Builder versions below 4.1.4, the app writes sensitive information to internal log files.
In Splunk Add-on Builder versions below 4.1.4, the app writes sensitive information to internal log files.
High [CVE-2024-23678] In Splunk Enterprise for Windows versions below 9.0.8 and 9.1.3, Splunk Enterprise does not correctly sanitize path input data
In Splunk Enterprise for Windows versions below 9.0.8 and 9.1.3, Splunk Enterprise does not correctly sanitize path input data. This results in the unsafe deserialization of untrusted data from a separate disk partition on the machine. This vulnerability only affects Splunk Enterprise for Windows.
High [CVE-2023-46214] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.0.7 and 9.1.2, Splunk Enterprise does not safely sanitize extensible stylesheet language…
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.0.7 and 9.1.2, Splunk Enterprise does not safely sanitize extensible stylesheet language transformations (XSLT) that users supply. This means that an attacker can upload malicious XSLT which can result in remote code execution on the Splunk Enterprise instance.
High [CVE-2023-4571] In Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) versions below below 4.13.3, 4.15.3, or 4.17.1, a malicious actor
In Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI) versions below below 4.13.3, 4.15.3, or 4.17.1, a malicious actor can inject American National Standards Institute (ANSI) escape codes into Splunk ITSI log files that, when a vulnerable terminal application reads them, can run malicious code in the vulnerable application. This attack requires a user to use a terminal application that translates ANSI escape codes to read the malicious log file locally in the vulnerable terminal. The vulnerability also requires additional user interaction to succeed. The vulnerability does not directly affect Splunk ITSI. The indirect impact on Splunk ITSI can vary significantly depending on the permissions in the vulnerable terminal application, as well as where and how the user reads the malicious log file. For example, users can copy the malicious file from Splunk ITSI and read it on their local machine.
High [CVE-2023-40598] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 8.2.12, 9.0.6, and 9.1.1, an attacker
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 8.2.12, 9.0.6, and 9.1.1, an attacker can create an external lookup that calls a legacy internal function. The attacker can use this internal function to insert code into the Splunk platform installation directory. From there, a user can execute arbitrary code on the Splunk platform Instance.
