Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated Splunk SOAR user who holds a role explicitly granting permission to run actions on the Cisco Webex App integration. The disclosure occurs only when the 'schedule meeting' action is invoked and a meeting password is supplied - the flaw is isolated to this specific action parameter and does not affect other Webex App actions or other SOAR integrations. Users without the 'run actions' role cannot trigger the exposure. External unauthenticated network access does not enable exploitation. The risk is further limited to environments where the Cisco Webex App for Splunk SOAR is installed and where meeting passwords are actually used; organizations that do not password-protect Webex meetings are not exposed to credential theft via this vector.

Impact

The vendor-supplied CVSS 4.3 (Medium) vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N) accurately reflects the constrained scope: attack vector is network, but PR:L confirms exploitation requires an authenticated SOAR user already holding action-execution permissions, making this an insider or over-privileged-user scenario rather than an external attack surface. Confidentiality impact is limited to a single meeting credential (C:L), with no integrity or availability consequence. There is no CISA KEV listing, no identified public exploit code, and no EPSS data was provided - exploitation probability is therefore inferred as low. Real-world risk is further reduced by the niche deployment footprint of SOAR platforms and the role-gated access model. The primary threat model is accidental exposure (e.g., screen sharing, audit log review) or deliberate exfiltration by an insider with SOAR action permissions. This is a genuine but low-priority finding unless meeting passwords protect high-sensitivity sessions.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated Splunk SOAR user with the 'run actions' role opens the Cisco Webex App integration and triggers the 'schedule meeting' action, supplying a meeting password in the password parameter. Because the parameter is not masked, the plaintext credential is visible in the SOAR action form and may also appear in action run logs or audit records, allowing the user - or anyone with access to those logs - to capture the meeting credential and use it to join a protected Webex meeting without authorization. No public exploit code has been identified.

AnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026

Information disclosure in the Cisco Webex App for Splunk SOAR (versions below 2.2.1) exposes Webex meeting passwords in cleartext within the SOAR platform interface. Authenticated users holding roles with action-execution permissions who invoke the 'schedule meeting' action can read the plaintext meeting password directly from the UI, because the app's action manifest fails to designate the password parameter as a masked field. No active exploitation has been identified (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code is known; real-world impact is bounded by the requirement for existing SOAR action permissions.

RemediationAI

Upgrade the Cisco Webex App for Splunk SOAR to version 2.2.1 or later, which corrects the action manifest to mark the meeting password parameter as a masked field. The authoritative upgrade instructions are provided in the Splunk vendor advisory at https://advisory.splunk.com/advisories/SVD-2026-0806. As a compensating control prior to patching, restrict the 'run actions' SOAR permission to the minimum set of operationally required users; this reduces the population of accounts that could observe the cleartext value, though it does not eliminate the underlying defect. If the 'schedule meeting' action is not actively used in production playbooks, consider temporarily disabling the Cisco Webex App within SOAR until the patched version is deployed. Audit existing SOAR action run logs for any historical executions of 'schedule meeting' that may have captured meeting passwords in plaintext, and rotate affected meeting credentials as a precaution.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The root cause is CWE-312 (Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information), a configuration defect in the Cisco Webex App's action manifest for Splunk SOAR. Splunk SOAR's action framework provides a 'password' parameter type that instructs the platform to mask sensitive values in the UI and logs; the affected app fails to apply this designation to the 'password' parameter of its 'schedule meeting' action. As a result, the SOAR UI renders the credential in plaintext at action invocation time. The affected component is specifically identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:splunk:cisco_webex_app_for_splunk_soar:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, covering all releases in the 2.2.x line prior to 2.2.1. This is a connector-layer defect, not a flaw in the Splunk SOAR engine itself.

DescriptionCVE.org

In versions below 2.2.1 of the Cisco Webex app for Splunk SOAR, a user who holds a role with permission to run actions could expose a sensitive meeting password by invoking the schedule meeting action, because the action's password parameter is not masked and is shown in cleartext in the user interface. The information disclosure is possible because the app does not mark the affected action parameter as a password. For more information see Run an action in Splunk SOAR (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-soar/soar-on-premises/use-splunk-soar-on-premises/8.6.0/use-the-command-line-interface-to-perform-tasks-in-splunk-soar-on-premises/run-an-action-in-splunk-soar-on-premises).
