CVE-2026-76323: SPL Risky Command Safeguards Bypass through the Job Details Dashboard in Splunk Enterprise
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, a user who does not hold the "admin" or "power" Splunk roles could bypass Search Processing Language (SPL) safeguards for risky commands through the Job Details dashboard. The injected SPL could run using the permissions of an authenticated user who opens a crafted Job Details dashboard link. This could allow access to all relevant data and affect system integrity within those permissions. The vulnerability is possible because the Job Details dashboard does not correctly neutralize a caller-supplied search identifier before placing it into SPL searches. The vulnerability requires the attacker to phish the user by tricking them into opening the crafted link. The user who does not hold the "admin" or "power" Splunk roles should not be able to exploit the vulnerability at will.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is exposed to exploitation?
Authenticated Splunk Enterprise users who open a crafted Job Details dashboard link are exposed. The injected SPL runs with the permissions of the user who opens the link, so the accessible data and integrity impact depend on that user's privileges.
What does an attacker need to exploit this issue?
The attacker must be a user without the admin or power roles and must cause another authenticated user to open a crafted Job Details dashboard link, such as through phishing. Exploitation is not possible at will by such a user without the target opening the link.
Which versions include the fix?
The issue affects versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14. Updating to the applicable listed release or later addresses the affected version ranges.
