CVE-2025-20229 highlights that low-privileged users can pose significant risks by enabling them to execute arbitrary code remotely through uploading malicious files to a specific server directory. The vulnerability stems from missing authorization checks in the file upload process to: $SPLUNK_HOME/var/run/splunk/apptemp.

According to the official Splunk advisory:

“A low-privileged user that does not hold the ‘admin’ or ‘power’ Splunk roles could perform a Remote Code Execution (RCE) through a file upload […] due to missing authorization checks.”

Impacted versions include:

Splunk Enterprise: 9.1.0 to 9.1.7, 9.2.0 to 9.2.4, 9.3.0 to 9.3.2
Splunk Cloud Platform: Various builds prior to 9.3.2408.104, 9.2.2406.108, and 9.1.2312.208

Users are advised that updates are available in Splunk Enterprise versions 9.1.8, 9.2.5, 9.3.3, and 9.4.0.
