Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Send unauthenticated GET request to /en-US/splunkd/__raw/services/server/info/server-info?output_mode=json and check for HTTP 200 response containing the string 'licenseKeys' to confirm exploitation. ↗
- →Also probe the alternate path /__raw/services/server/info/server-info?output_mode=json (without the /en-US/splunkd prefix) as some deployments expose it directly. ↗
- →Splunk versions 6.6.0 through 7.0.1 require authentication for this endpoint; versions 6.2.3 through 6.5.x are exploitable without credentials. ↗
- →Use Shodan/FOFA/Google dorks to identify exposed Splunk login pages as pre-targeting step before probing the disclosure endpoint. ↗
- ·Affected version range is Splunk 6.2.3 through 7.0.1; versions outside this range are not confirmed vulnerable. ↗
- ·Authentication is required for Splunk 6.6.0–7.0.1, so unauthenticated exploitation only applies to versions 6.2.3–6.5.x. ↗
