Unauthenticated Information Disclosure through an Edge Processor Service Endpoint in Splunk Enterprise
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 30/100)
- 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: 0.50% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In Splunk Enterprise 10.4 versions below 10.4.2, an unauthenticated user could retrieve the information contained in Edge Processor pipeline configurations through a Representational State Transfer (REST) API endpoint when Edge Processor is turned on. The vulnerability does not affect versions prior to 10.4. The vulnerability exists because the Edge Processor service endpoint lacks authentication controls. For more information see System architecture of the Edge Processor solution (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-enterprise/process-data-at-the-edge/use-edge-processors-for-splunk-enterprise/10.4/how-the-edge-processor-solution-works/system-architecture-of-the-edge-processor-solution) in the Splunk documentation.
