vulnerability as referenced in the SVD-2026-0703 advisory.

    versions below 10.5.2605.0, 10.4.2604.6, 10.2.2510.18, and 10.1.2507.24, a user who holds a role that

    to write files outside the intended app directory, into `$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/` and its
    subdirectories.<br><br>The vulnerability is caused by a path traversal in the app installation workflow,
    which does not restrict the installation path to the intended app directory. (CVE-2026-20297)
