Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, an unauthenticated user could trick an authenticated user into opening a crafted link to Analytics Workspace. When the authenticated user opens the link, Splunk Enterprise runs attacker-controlled Search Processing Language (SPL) using the permissions of that user. The injected SPL could access data and perform actions available to that user. The vulnerability is possible because Analytics Workspace does not sufficiently validate data used to build searches. The vulnerability requires the attacker to phish the user by tricking them into opening the crafted link. The unauthenticated user should not be able to exploit the vulnerability at will.
AnalysisAI
SPL injection via Analytics Workspace in Splunk Enterprise allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary Search Processing Language queries under the permissions of a phished authenticated user. Affected across four release trains - 9.4 below 9.4.14, 10.0 below 10.0.9, 10.2 below 10.2.6, and 10.4 below 10.4.2 - the flaw stems from insufficient input validation when Analytics Workspace constructs searches from URL-embedded data. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires two sequential conditions: the attacker must craft a malicious Analytics Workspace URL, and a currently authenticated Splunk Enterprise user must be socially engineered into clicking it - the CVSS UI:R metric confirms this user interaction is mandatory. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 7.1 score with AC:H and UI:R accurately captures the constrained exploitation path - the attacker cannot trigger the flaw autonomously and depends entirely on successfully phishing an authenticated Splunk user. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Upgrade Splunk Enterprise to the fixed versions: 9.4.14 for the 9.4 branch, 10.0.9 for the 10.0 branch, 10.2.6 for the 10.2 branch, or 10.4.2 for the 10.4 branch, as documented in the vendor advisory at https://advisory.splunk.com/advisories/SVD-2026-0801 - vendor-released patches are confirmed available. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
