In Splunk Enterprise versions lower than 8.2.12, 9.0.6, and 9.1.1, an attacker can execute a specially crafted query that they can then use to serialize untrusted data. The attacker can use the query to execute arbitrary code.
High [CVE-2023-40592] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.1.1, 9.0.6, and 8.2.12, an attacker can craft a special web request that can
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.1.1, 9.0.6, and 8.2.12, an attacker can craft a special web request that can result in reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) on the “/app/search/table” web endpoint. Exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to the execution of arbitrary commands on the Splunk platform instance.
Medium [CVE-2023-40594] In Splunk Enterprise versions lower than 8.2.12, 9.0.6, and 9.1.1, an attacker
In Splunk Enterprise versions lower than 8.2.12, 9.0.6, and 9.1.1, an attacker can use the `printf` SPL function to perform a denial of service (DoS) against the Splunk Enterprise instance.
Medium [CVE-2023-40593] In Splunk Enterprise versions lower than 9.0.6 and 8.2.12, a malicious actor
In Splunk Enterprise versions lower than 9.0.6 and 8.2.12, a malicious actor can send a malformed security assertion markup language (SAML) request to the `/saml/acs` REST endpoint which can cause a denial of service through a crash or hang of the Splunk daemon.
High [CVE-2023-3997] Splunk SOAR versions lower than 6.1.0 are indirectly affected by a potential vulnerability accessed through the user’s terminal
Splunk SOAR versions lower than 6.1.0 are indirectly affected by a potential vulnerability accessed through the user’s terminal. A third party can send Splunk SOAR a maliciously crafted web request containing special ANSI characters to cause log file poisoning. When a terminal user attempts to view the poisoned logs, this can tamper with the terminal and cause possible malicious code execution from the terminal user’s action.
High [CVE-2023-32714] In the Splunk App for Lookup File Editing versions below 4.0.1, a low-privileged user
In the Splunk App for Lookup File Editing versions below 4.0.1, a low-privileged user can, with a specially crafted web request, trigger a path traversal exploit that can then be used to read and write to restricted areas of the Splunk installation directory.
High [CVE-2023-32713] Splunk Enterprise: In Splunk App for Stream versions below 8.1.1, a low-privileged user
In Splunk App for Stream versions below 8.1.1, a low-privileged user could use a vulnerability in the streamfwd process within the Splunk App for Stream to escalate their privileges on the machine that runs the Splunk Enterprise instance, up to and including the root user.
High [CVE-2023-32712] In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.1.0.2, 9.0.5.1, and 8.2.11.2, an attacker
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.1.0.2, 9.0.5.1, and 8.2.11.2, an attacker can inject American National Standards Institute (ANSI) escape codes into Splunk log files that, when a vulnerable terminal application reads them, can potentially, at worst, result in possible code execution in the vulnerable application. This attack requires a user to use a terminal application that supports the translation of ANSI escape codes to read the malicious log file locally in the vulnerable terminal, and to perform additional user interaction to exploit. Universal Forwarder versions 9.1.0.1, 9.0.5, 8.2.11, and lower can be vulnerable in situations where they have management services active and accessible over the network. Universal Forwarder versions 9.0.x and 9.1.x bind management services to the local machine and are not vulnerable in this specific configuration. See SVD-2022-0605 for more information. Universal Forwarder versions 9.1 use Unix Domain Sockets (UDS) for communication, which further reduces the potential attack surface. The vulnerability does not directly affect Splunk Enterprise or Universal Forwarder. The indirect impact on Splunk Enterprise and Universal Forwarder can vary significantly depending on the permissions in the vulnerable terminal application and where and how the user reads the malicious log file.
