CVE-2026-76405: The application stores sensitive information in cleartext within a resource that might be accessible to another control sphere. in Splunk Splunk On-Call (VictorOps)
Splunk On-Call (VictorOps) app versions equal to 1.0 store a partially masked API key in a KV Store collection accessible to users without admin or power roles. This allows such users to read sensitive information that should be protected. The vulnerability arises because the API key is not fully masked before storage. The CVSS score is 4.3, indicating a medium severity issue with low confidentiality impact and no integrity or availability impact.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
In Splunk On-Call (VictorOps) app version 1.0, a user lacking admin or power Splunk roles can read a partially masked API key stored in the App Key Value Store (KV Store). The app fails to fully mask the API key before storing it in a KV Store collection that is readable by these lower-privileged users. This results in exposure of sensitive information in cleartext within a resource accessible to a broader control sphere than intended.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows users with limited privileges (non-admin, non-power roles) to access a partially masked API key, potentially exposing sensitive credentials. The impact is limited to confidentiality with no direct effect on integrity or availability. The CVSS score of 4.3 reflects a medium severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no user interaction required.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict access to the KV Store collections used by the Splunk On-Call (VictorOps) app to trusted users only. Monitor for updates from Splunk regarding an official fix or mitigation steps.
