Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-76272 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Splunk Splunk. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76272/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76272/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-76272","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76272/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-76272","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8rx4-3877-qpv7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Splunk Secure Gateway","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Unauthorized users can sign attacker-controlled payloads via the REST API, potentially leading to code execution or security bypass in Splunk Secure Gateway.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"splunk","vendor":"splunk"},{"product":"splunk_secure_gateway","vendor":"splunk"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.3, 10.2.7, 10.0.10, and 9.4.15, a user who does not hold the \"admin\" or \"power\" Splunk roles could cause Splunk Secure Gateway to sign attacker-controlled payloads.
