NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kibana-9.4-advanced package and not the kibana-9.4-advanced package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

Missing Authorization (CWE-862) in Kibana can lead to unauthorized execution of Osquery and Elastic Defend response actions on managed hosts via Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by ACLs (CAPEC-1). A Kibana user who is able to author and evaluate Elastic Security detection rules can cause response actions to be carried out against enrolled agents without holding the Osquery live query privileges or the Elastic Defend response action privileges that normally govern those capabilities. Depending on the response action involved, this can result in disclosure of information from the affected hosts or in unauthorized changes to their state.
