This rule detects exploitation attempts against Splunk Enterprise and Cloud Platform's PostgreSQL sidecar backup endpoint, which allows unauthenticated file creation or truncation (CVE-2026-20253). The attack is characterized by POST requests to the path /splunkd/__raw/v1/postgres/recovery/backup, optionally prefixed by a region (e.g., /en-US/). The rule matches any request URI containing this path, using lowercase and urldecode transforms to ensure case-insensitive and encoded variant matching. No argument or body matching is required, as the vulnerability is triggered solely by accessing this endpoint. The labels section includes the correct CVE, ATT&CK, and CWE references. All value: fields are lowercase, and the rule uses contains for robust detection with minimal false positives.
