Does this affect you?

It affects Splunk Enterprise. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.37%, higher than 30% of scored CVEs.

In Splunk Enterprise versions below 10.4.4, 10.2.8, 10.0.11, and 9.4.16, an unauthenticated user could send a single crafted request to the Splunk Web JavaScript logger endpoint and cause Splunk Web to stop responding to requests. Splunk Web remains unavailable until Splunk Enterprise is restarted. The vulnerability is possible because Splunk Web does not limit request-header parsing before processing the request.
