Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to excessive data output by the application. A remote user can run a saved search with a risky command using the permissions of a higher-privileged user to bypass the SPL safeguards for risky commands on "/en-US/app/search/report" endpoint through "s" parameter. The vulnerability requires the attacker to phish the victim by tricking them into initiating a request within their browser. The authenticated user should not be able to exploit the vulnerability at will.
