Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionNVD
In Splunk AI Toolkit versions below 6.0.0, a user who does not hold the "admin" or "power" Splunk roles could obtain predictable or default credentials for connected container services. The use of hard-coded credentials is possible because Splunk AI Toolkit generates or stores credentials for connected container services using predictable or hard-coded default values. For more information see Connections tab in the AI Toolkit (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-cloud-platform/apply-machine-learning/use-ai-toolkit/5.7.2/ai-toolkit-commands-macros-and-visualizations/connections-tab-in-the-ai-toolkit) in the Splunk documentation.
AnalysisAI
Hard-coded and predictable credentials in Splunk AI Toolkit versions below 6.0.0 expose connected container services to unauthorized access by any low-privileged Splunk user. The toolkit generates or stores credentials for its container integrations using predictable or fixed default values, which are retrievable through the AI Toolkit Connections tab without requiring elevated Splunk roles. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a valid Splunk account at any privilege level below 'admin' or 'power' roles, confirmed by the CVSS PR:L metric. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 5.4 (Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N accurately captures the key dynamics: network-accessible, low-complexity, but gated by requiring a valid Splunk login at any non-admin level. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated Splunk user without 'admin' or 'power' roles navigates to the AI Toolkit Connections tab and reads the predictable or hard-coded credentials stored there for connected container services. The attacker then uses those credentials to authenticate directly to the container service outside of Splunk, gaining access to data or execution capability within the container environment. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade Splunk AI Toolkit to version 6.0.0 or later, which resolves the hard-coded credential issue per vendor advisory SVD-2026-0808 (https://advisory.splunk.com/advisories/SVD-2026-0808). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
