Descriptions

In Splunk Enterprise versions before 8.1.2, the uri path to load a relative resource within a web page is vulnerable to path traversal. It allows an attacker to potentially inject arbitrary content into the web page (e.g., HTML Injection, XSS) or bypass SPL safeguards for risky commands. The attack is browser-based. An attacker cannot exploit the attack at will and requires the attacker to initiate a request within the victim's browser (e.g., phishing).

En las versiones de Splunk Enterprise anteriores a la 8.1.2, la ruta uri para cargar un recurso relativo dentro de una página web es vulnerable al path traversal. Permite a un atacante inyectar potencialmente contenido arbitrario en la página web (por ejemplo, inyección de HTML, XSS) o eludir las salvaguardias de SPL para los comandos de riesgo. El ataque está basado en el navegador. Un atacante no puede explotar el ataque a voluntad y requiere que el atacante inicie una solicitud dentro del navegador de la víctima (por ejemplo, phishing)
