- CVE-2026-20298Medium
In Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud Platform, a vulnerability allows a low-privileged user (without 'admin' or 'power' roles) to view stored credential hashes.

- CVE-2026-20296High
In Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud Platform, a CSRF vulnerability allows an attacker to trick a user with appropriate privileges into executing arbitrary SPL searches as the splunk-system-user. The issue is due to missing CSRF token validation on GET requests in Deployment Server endpoints and improper input neutralization before inclusion in an SPL search.
