mappy.py in Splunk Web in Splunk 4.2.x before 4.2.5 does not properly restrict use of the mappy command to access Python classes, which allows remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary code by leveraging the sys module in a request to the search application, as demonstrated by a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack, aka SPL-45172.

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in Splunk 4.x before 4.2.5 allow remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in a URI to (1) Splunk Web or (2) the Splunkd HTTP Server, aka SPL-45243.

The XML parser in Splunk 4.0.0 through 4.1.4 allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information and gain privileges via an XML External Entity (XXE) attack to unknown vectors.

Splunk 4.0.0 through 4.1.4 allows remote attackers to conduct session hijacking attacks and obtain the splunkd session key via vectors related to the SPLUNKD_SESSION_KEY parameter.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Splunk 4.0 through 4.0.10 and 4.1 through 4.1.1 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) redirects, aka SPL-31067; (2) unspecified "user->user or user->admin" vectors, aka SPL-31084; or (3) unspecified "user input," aka SPL-31085.

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in Splunk 4.0 through 4.0.10 and 4.1 through 4.1.1 allow (1) remote attackers to read arbitrary files, aka SPL-31194; (2) remote authenticated users to modify arbitrary files, aka SPL-31063; or (3) have an unknown impact via redirects, aka SPL-31067.

Splunk 4.0 through 4.0.10 and 4.1 through 4.1.1 allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information via HTTP header injection, aka SPL-31066.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Splunk 4.0 through 4.1.2, when Internet Explorer is used, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the HTTP Referer in a "404 Not Found" response.
