MEDIUM 6.6

Incorrect Permission Assignment through Safe Mode in Nmap Scanner for Splunk SOAR

CVSS Score
6.6
EPSS Score
0.0%
EPSS Percentile
0th

In Nmap Scanner versions below 3.0.15, a user who holds a role that can edit, create, or run playbooks in Splunk SOAR could run the scan network action in a Safe Mode playbook while that action is listed as read-only, which could allow for command execution or other changes on a target system through Nmap Scripting Engine scripts. The vulnerability is possible because the Nmap Scanner connector action manifest classifies the scan network action as read-only even though the action accepts script parameters that can perform write operations. For more information see Manage settings for a playbook in Splunk SOAR (https://help.splunk.com/en/splunk-soar/soar-cloud/build-playbooks/manage-playbooks-and-playbook-settings/manage-settings-for-a-playbook-in-splunk-soar-cloud) in the Splunk documentation.
