Descriptions

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.0.7 and 9.1.2, Splunk Enterprise does not safely sanitize extensible stylesheet language transformations (XSLT) that users supply. This means that an attacker can upload malicious XSLT which can result in remote code execution on the Splunk Enterprise instance.

En las versiones de Splunk Enterprise inferiores a 9.0.7 y 9.1.2, Splunk Enterprise no sanitiza de forma segura las transformaciones de lenguaje de hojas de estilo extensibles (XSLT) que proporcionan los usuarios. Esto significa que un atacante puede cargar XSLT malicioso, lo que puede provocar la ejecución remota de código en la instancia de Splunk Enterprise.
