Overview

kibana is an open source (Apache Licensed), browser-based analytics and search dashboard for Elasticsearch.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization via the Fleet internal API endpoint. An attacker can access sensitive configuration data, including private keys and authentication tokens, by abusing insufficient privilege checks on the endpoint, which fetches and returns full configuration objects without enforcing proper authorization.
