    10.0.2503.5, 9.3.2411.111, and 9.3.2408.121, an unauthenticated attacker could craft a malicious URL using
    the return_to parameter of the Splunk Web login endpoint. When an authenticated user visits the malicious
    URL, it could cause an unvalidated redirect to an external malicious site.To be successful, the attacker
    has to trick the victim into initiating a request from their browser. The unauthenticated attacker should
    not be able to exploit the vulnerability at will. (CVE-2025-20378)
