# CVE-2026-76322: SPL Injection through Dashboard Studio Search Query Options in Splunk Enterprise

- Severity: CVSS 6.7 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, 9.4.14
- Published: 2026-08-19 · Updated: 2026-08-27

## 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

## Description

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.2, 10.2.6, 10.0.9, and 9.4.14, a user who holds the "user" Splunk role could craft a Dashboard Studio dashboard that runs attacker-controlled Search Processing Language (SPL) for another authenticated user. The attacker-controlled SPL could access all relevant data and affect system integrity and availability. The vulnerability is possible because Dashboard Studio does not consistently enforce the expected app-visibility authorization boundary before dashboard search query options reach search dispatch. The vulnerability requires the attacker to phish the affected user by tricking them into initiating a request within their browser. The user who holds the "user" Splunk role should not be able to exploit the vulnerability at will.
