Splunk Enterprise Security and Splunk 6.5.2: When clicking "Event Actions" button within an expanded event, why do I receive "TypeError: message is undefined" error?

Since upgrading Splunk to 6.5.2, in the Splunk Enterprise Security (ES) search page I get "TypeError: message is undefined" when clicking the "Event Actions" button within an expanded event. The same thing happens on the "Incident Review" page if I click the down arrow in any column of the events table. This happens in both Firefox and Internet Explorer (IE) 11

TypeError: message is undefined

This is resolved. The error was caused by a corrupted file: in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/SA-ThreatIntelligence/local/workflow_actions.conf

I deleted this file, restarted splunk and no more errors.

What version of Splunk Enterprise Security do you have installed? Have you cleared your browser cache?

Hi, it's 4.5.2 and yes I have tried clearing my browser cache. This issue is affecting all users of our ES app.

Thanks.
