CVE-2024-53245: Information Disclosure due to Username Collision with a Role that has the same Name as the User

MediumCVSS 4.3 · v3.1—No exploit No fix recorded

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 17/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.36% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.

Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.3.0, 9.2.4, and 9.1.7 and Splunk Cloud Platform versions below 9.1.2312.206, a low-privileged user that does not hold the “admin“ or “power“ Splunk roles, that has a username with the same name as a role with read access to dashboards, could see the dashboard name and the dashboard XML by cloning the dashboard.

Root cause

The extension requests broader permissions than its function needs and sends the data it collects out for purposes beyond its stated function.

A representative example of this vulnerability class. Not the vendor's source code; it shows the faulty pattern and its fix.
