Synopsis

An application running on a remote web server host is affected by a vulnerability

Description

The version of Splunk installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SVD-2026-0608 advisory.

 - In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.2.4, 10.0.7, 9.4.12, and 9.3.13, and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 10.3.2512.11, 10.2.2510.15, 10.1.2507.23, and 9.3.2411.132, a low-privileged user that does not hold the admin or power Splunk roles could store a malicious script in a classic dashboard HTML panel, causing unauthorized JavaScript code to execute in the browser of another user. The vulnerability requires the attacker to phish the victim by tricking them into initiating a request within their browser. The low- privileged user should not be able to exploit the vulnerability at will. For information about role capabilities, see Define roles on the Splunk platform with capabilities. (CVE-2026-20258)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade Splunk Enterprise to versions 10.4.0, 10.2.4, 10.0.7, 9.4.12, and 9.3.13, or higher.Splunk is actively monitoring and patching Splunk Cloud Platform instances.
