CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

In Splunk AI Toolkit versions prior to 6.0.0, users without "admin" or "power" roles can execute searches with elevated system-level privileges, compromising data integrity and allowing unauthorized access to search jobs of other users. This vulnerability arises from improper privilege management, where the system authentication token replaces the user session key during search operations. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize remediation to prevent potential data breaches and unauthorized actions within their Splunk environments.

Original NVD Description

In Splunk AI Toolkit versions below 6.0.0, a user who does not hold the "admin" or "power" Splunk roles could run searches with system-level privileges, access all relevant data, affect system integrity, and read or delete search jobs belonging to other users through Agent Run History. The improper privilege management is possible because the Agent Run History handler replaces the calling user session key with a system authentication token before it performs search operations. For more information see AI Toolkit Agent Launchpad (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-enterprise/apply-machine-learning/use-ai-toolkit/6.0.0/ai-toolkit-connections-containers-and-agents/ai-toolkit-agent-launchpad) in the Splunk documentation.
