Splunk CVEs

Beginning in mid-2026, Splunk began aligning their disclosure process with Cisco’s – changing how they do disclosure of security issues and changing the frequency with which they release security patches. As a result, Splunk is no longer disclosing the contents of any given patch until late each month, and they are releasing at least one patch a month.

What this means for you

  1. Our Insights for Network team is moving to a monthly schedule for security-focused updates and a quarterly schedule of feature releases for Insights for Network – targeting releases for the middle of each month.
  2. These monthly security-focused updates may include patches provided by Splunk where Splunk has not yet published corresponding disclosure details
  3. This means the initial advisory Absolute provides for each monthly security update may not contain full details on Splunk disclosures as it has in the past ‍
  4. We will always update our initial advisory with those details as soon as they are provided to us by Splunk‍
  5. Our advice regarding all security-focused updates remains the same – install the update as soon as it is reasonable to do so.
