CVE [?]: CVE-2017-17067
CPE [?]: cpe:/a:splunk:splunk
Synopsis
An application running on the remote web server is affected by multiple SAML implementation vulnerabilities.
Description
According to its self-reported version number, the version of Splunk running on the remote web server is 6.3.x prior to 6.3.12, 6.4.x prior to 6.4.9, 6.5.x prior to 6.5.6, 6.6.x prior to 6.6.3.2 or 6.6.4, or 7.0.x prior to 7.0.0.1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple SAML implementation vulnerabilities.
Note that this only affects Splunk Enterprise components running Splunk Web with SAML authentication enabled.
Solution
Upgrade to Splunk Enterprise version 6.3.12 / 6.4.9 / 6.5.6 / 6.6.3.2 / 6.6.4 / 7.0.0.1 or later.
Public Exploits
Target Network Port(s): 8000, 8089
Target Asset(s): Services/www
Exploit Available: True (GitHub)
Exploit Ease: No exploit is required
Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the Splunk Enterprise 6.3.x < 6.3.12 / 6.4.x < 6.4.9 / 6.5.x < 6.5.6 / 6.6 < 6.6.3.2 or 6.6.4 / 7.0.x < 7.0.0.1 Multiple SAML Implementation Vulnerabilities vulnerability:
- GitHub: https://github.com/tsumarios/Splunk-Defensive-Analysis
[CVE-2017-17067]
Before running any exploit against any system, make sure you are authorized by the owner of the target system(s) to perform such activity. In any other case, this would be considered as an illegal activity.
WARNING: Beware of using unverified exploits from sources such as GitHub or Exploit-DB. These exploits and PoCs could contain malware. For more information, see how to use exploits safely.
