    could perform a Remote Code Execution (RCE) through the Splunk Secure Gateway app.The Remote Code
    Execution is possible because of unsafe deserialization of App Key Value Store (KV Store) data through the
    jsonpickle' Python library, which reconstructs arbitrary Python objects from specially crafted JavaScript
    Object Notation (JSON) without adequate validation.See App Key Value Store and About role-based user
    access in the Splunk documentation for more information. (CVE-2026-20251)
