AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-76369 is a path traversal vulnerability in Splunk SOAR versions prior to 8.6.0 affecting users with the OnPrem Broker role. The vulnerability arises because the Automation Broker log upload functionality accepts crafted filename inputs without proper sanitization, enabling these users to write files outside the designated log directory. This could lead to unauthorized file writes but does not affect confidentiality or availability of the system. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 2.7, reflecting low severity with impact limited to integrity.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows users with the OnPrem Broker role to write files outside the intended Automation Broker log directory, potentially leading to unauthorized file modifications. There is no impact on confidentiality or availability. The overall impact is limited to integrity with low severity.
