vulnerability as referenced in the SVD-2026-0504 advisory.

  - In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.2.2, 10.0.5, 9.4.11, and 9.3.12, and Splunk Cloud Platform versions
    below 10.4.2603.1, 10.3.2512.9, 10.2.2510.11, 10.1.2507.21, 10.0.2503.13, and 9.3.2411.129, a low-
    privileged user that does not hold the admin' or power' Splunk roles could cause a Denial of Service by
    exploiting the `coldToFrozen.sh` script in the `splunk_archiver` app to rename critical Splunk
    directories, making the instance non-functional.<br><br>The Denial of Service is possible because of
    missing input validation in the `coldToFrozen.sh` script, which accepts arbitrary file paths and renames
    them without restricting operations to safe directories. (CVE-2026-20240)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
