Summary
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.3, 10.2.7, 10.0.10, and 9.4.15, and Splunk Secure Gateway versions below 3.10.11, 3.9.25, and 3.8.72, an authenticated user without admin or sc_admin roles could modify alert and mobile-device recipient data in App Key Value Store collections used by alert and subscription workflows. The vulnerability is due to unrestricted write access to these collections.
Risk Assessment
Unauthorized users can manipulate alert and subscription data, potentially causing incorrect monitoring behavior or data integrity issues.
Recommendation
Upgrade Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Secure Gateway to patched versions and restrict KV Store collection access to authorized workflows only.
Other vulnerabilities in Splunk Enterprise
See all- CVE-2026-76284Critical
Splunk Enterprise versions 10.4.3, 10.2.7, 10.0.10, and 9.4.15 contain a vulnerability related to improper input neutralization. The vulnerability was internally identified and addressed in the mentioned versions.
- CVE-2026-76268Critical
Vulnerability in Splunk Enterprise before versions 10.4.3 and 10.2.7 allows an unauthenticated user with network access to the Patroni REST API on a search head cluster member to execute attacker-controlled OS commands. The interface does not require authentication for critical configuration operations.
- CVE-2026-76312Critical
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.1, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, an unauthenticated user who can read the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) source of a page that embeds a Splunk report could use exposed session material to access all relevant data and affect system integrity. The vulnerability is possible because the dispatch archive download path does not correctly enforce the embedded-report authorization boundary and includes sensitive session material in archived search-job data.
- CVE-2026-76311Critical
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, an unauthenticated user who has an embedded report token could download the dispatch archive for an embedded report search job and use exposed session material to access all relevant data and affect system integrity on the Splunk platform instance. The vulnerability is possible because the embedded report authorization flow does not block dispatch archive download requests before Splunk Enterprise begins sending the archive to the requester.
- CVE-2026-76310Critical
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, an unauthenticated user who has an embedded report token could download the associated search job dispatch archive, recover session material, and use it to access all relevant data available to the report owner and affect system integrity, including by performing administrative actions when the owner holds the "admin" Splunk role. The vulnerability is possible because embedded report access does not block Representational State Transfer (REST) API dispatch archive download requests.
- CVE-2026-20253CriticalActively exploited
In Splunk Enterprise 10.2 before 10.2.4 and 10.x before 10.0.7, an unauthenticated user can create or truncate arbitrary files via a PostgreSQL sidecar service endpoint. The endpoint lacks authentication.

Original NVD description (English source)
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.3, 10.2.7, 10.0.10, and 9.4.15, and Splunk Secure Gateway versions below 3.10.11, 3.9.25, and 3.8.72, an authenticated user who does not hold the "admin" or "sc_admin" Splunk roles could modify Splunk Secure Gateway alert and mobile-device recipient data in App Key Value Store (KV Store) collections that later alert and subscription workflows use. The vulnerability is possible because the affected collections allow unrestricted write access instead of limiting writes to authorized Splunk Secure Gateway workflows.
