CVE-2024-36984
In Splunk Enterprise versions below 9.2.2, 9.1.5, and 9.0.10 on Windows, an authenticated user could execute a specially crafted query that they could then use to serialize untrusted data.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.41%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
