GHSA-6QFC-M9FP-C5RM
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-15 18:31 – Updated: 2026-04-15 18:31In Splunk MCP Server app versions below 1.0.3 , a user who holds a role with access to the Splunk _internal index or possesses the high-privilege capability mcp_tool_admin could view users session and authorization tokens in clear text.
The vulnerability would require either local access to the log files or administrative access to internal indexes, which by default only the admin role receives.
Review roles and capabilities on your instance and restrict internal index access to administrator-level roles. See Define roles on the Splunk platform with capabilities and Connecting to MCP Server and Admin settings in the Splunk documentation for more information.

Mitigation
Consider seriously the sensitivity of the information written into log files. Do not write secrets into the log files.
Mitigation
Remove debug log files before deploying the application into production.
Mitigation
Protect log files against unauthorized read/write.
Mitigation
Adjust configurations appropriately when software is transitioned from a debug state to production.
CAPEC-215: Fuzzing for application mapping
An attacker sends random, malformed, or otherwise unexpected messages to a target application and observes the application's log or error messages returned. The attacker does not initially know how a target will respond to individual messages but by attempting a large number of message variants they may find a variant that trigger's desired behavior. In this attack, the purpose of the fuzzing is to observe the application's log and error messages, although fuzzing a target can also sometimes cause the target to enter an unstable state, causing a crash.
