Splunk SOAR versions lower than 6.1.0 are indirectly affected by a potential vulnerability accessed through the user’s terminal. A third party can send Splunk SOAR a maliciously crafted web request containing special ANSI characters to cause log file poisoning. When a terminal user attempts to view the poisoned logs, this can tamper with the terminal and cause possible malicious code execution from the terminal user’s action.

In versions 1.0.67 and lower of the Splunk App for SOAR, the Splunk documentation for that app recommended adding the adminallobjects capability to the splunkappsoar role. This addition could lead to improper access control for a low-privileged user that does not hold the "admin" Splunk roles.
