Description

CVE-2026-76351 is a high-severity vulnerability in Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Secure Gateway where non-admin users can exploit crafted report notification data to cause the Secure Gateway to send requests to the Splunk Enterprise REST API using a system-level session token. This allows unauthorized modification of platform configuration and access to sensitive data without a password. The issue arises because the Secure Gateway does not properly validate decoded report notification identifiers before using them in API requests.

Technical Analysis

In affected versions of Splunk Enterprise (below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14) and Splunk Secure Gateway (below 3.10.9, 3.9.23, and 3.8.70), a user lacking admin or power roles can leverage crafted report notification data to trick the Secure Gateway into sending requests to the Splunk Enterprise REST API with a system-level session token. This vulnerability stems from insufficient validation of decoded report notification identifiers, enabling unauthorized configuration changes and session token theft without requiring a password.

Potential Impact

An attacker with limited privileges can escalate their access by obtaining a system-level session token without authentication, allowing them to modify Splunk platform configurations and access all relevant data. This compromises system integrity, confidentiality, and availability, representing a critical risk to affected environments.

Mitigation Recommendations

A fix is available in Splunk Enterprise versions 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, and Splunk Secure Gateway versions 3.10.9, 3.9.23, and 3.8.70. Users should upgrade to these or later versions to remediate the vulnerability. No alternative mitigations are indicated in the advisory.
