Published: Wed Jun 10 2026 (06/10/2026, 17:16:03 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: Splunk
Product: Splunk Enterprise

Description

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.2.4, 10.0.7, 9.4.12, and 9.3.13, and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 10.3.2512.13, 10.2.2510.15, 10.1.2507.23, and 9.3.2411.132, a low-privileged user that does not hold the "admin" or "power" Splunk roles could craft a classic dashboard that exfiltrates sensitive data from the browser of a higher-privileged user who views it. The exfiltration is possible because classic dashboard panels do not fully validate style attribute values, which can allow for requests to reach external domains outside the configured Trusted Domains List. The vulnerability requires the attacker to phish the victim by tricking them into initiating a request within their browser. The low-privileged user should not be able to exploit the vulnerability at will.

Technical Analysis

This vulnerability in Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud Platform involves improper validation of style attribute values in classic dashboard panels. A low-privileged user can create a dashboard that causes a higher-privileged user's browser to send requests to external domains outside the Trusted Domains List, potentially exfiltrating sensitive data. Exploitation requires user interaction via phishing. Affected versions include Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.2.4, 10.0.7, 9.4.12, and 9.3.13, and corresponding Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 10.3.2512.13, 10.2.2510.15, 10.1.2507.23, and 9.3.2411.132. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 5.7 (medium severity), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, low privileges required, user interaction required, unchanged scope, high confidentiality impact, and no integrity or availability impact. No vendor advisory or patch information is provided, and no known exploits in the wild are reported.

Potential Impact

An attacker with low privileges can craft a malicious dashboard that causes a higher-privileged user's browser to send data to external domains, leading to potential sensitive data exfiltration. This impacts confidentiality but does not affect integrity or availability. Exploitation requires phishing to induce user interaction, limiting the attacker's ability to exploit the vulnerability at will.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict dashboard creation permissions to trusted users and educate users to be cautious of phishing attempts that could trigger malicious dashboards. Monitor updates from Splunk for patches addressing this vulnerability.
