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 in the Machine Learning management endpoint due to insufficient authorization checks. An attacker can manipulate audit and notification records for arbitrary Machine Learning jobs, including those in other spaces or belonging to other users, by sending crafted requests that leverage internally elevated credentials to write to restricted system indices.
