CVE-2026-76271 is an inefficient regular-expression vulnerability in the Discover Splunk Observability Cloud app included with Splunk Enterprise. Input validation at a REST API endpoint permits a low-privileged user without the admin or power roles to trigger excessive regular-expression processing and cause denial of service. Affected release branches include 10.4.x before 10.4.3, 10.2.x before 10.2.7, and 10.0.x before 10.0.10.
