DescriptionCVE.org

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, an unauthenticated user could inject arbitrary Search Processing Language (SPL) into requests that search for events near a selected event. This could allow for unauthorized search execution. The vulnerability is possible because Splunk Web does not consistently escape caller-supplied values when it builds SPL for nearby-event searches, and embedded report access accepts those requests without the expected authorization check. For more information see Use time to find nearby events (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-enterprise/search/search-manual/10.2/specify-time-ranges/use-time-to-find-nearby-events) in the Splunk documentation.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated SPL injection in Splunk Enterprise's nearby-event search feature allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Search Processing Language queries without authorization across versions 9.4.x, 10.0.x, 10.2.x, and 10.4.x. The root cause is a two-pronged failure: Splunk Web does not consistently escape caller-supplied values when constructing SPL for nearby-event searches, and the embedded report access endpoint accepts those crafted requests without performing the expected authorization check. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Identify network-reachable Splunk Web instance
Delivery
Craft HTTP request with injected SPL payload targeting nearby-event search endpoint
Exploit
Bypass authorization check in embedded report access code path
Execution
Execute arbitrary SPL query without credentials
Impact
Exfiltrate or enumerate indexed log and event data

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attack requires no authentication (confirmed by CVSS PR:N) and no user interaction (UI:N). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) reflects a high-availability, low-complexity, unauthenticated network attack with partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An unauthenticated attacker with network access to Splunk Web crafts an HTTP request to the nearby-event search endpoint, injecting malicious SPL tokens into a parameter that Splunk Web interpolates without escaping. The request is routed through the embedded report access code path, which processes it without the expected authorization check, causing the injected SPL to execute under Splunk's search context. …
Remediation The primary fix is upgrading Splunk Enterprise to a patched release: 10.4.2 or later for the 10.4.x branch, 10.2.6 or later for 10.2.x, 10.0.9 or later for 10.0.x, and 9.4.14 or later for 9.4.x, per the vendor advisory at https://advisory.splunk.com/advisories/SVD-2026-0801. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, audit all Splunk Enterprise deployments to identify installed versions (9.4.x, 10.0.x, 10.2.x, 10.4.x) and segment or restrict network access to identified instances until patched. …
