Kibana versions 5.3.0 to 6.4.1 had a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability via the source field formatter that could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information from or perform destructive actions on behalf of other Kibana users.

An update of the kibana package has been released.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2018:3537 advisory.

    Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is Red Hat's cloud computing Kubernetes application platform solution     designed for on-premise or private cloud deployments.

    Security Fix(es):

    * A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in OpenShift Container Platform 3.x which allows for     compromise of pods running on a compute node to which a pod is scheduled with normal user privilege. This     access could include access to all secrets, pods, environment variables, running pod/container processes,     and persistent volumes, including in privileged containers. Additionally, on versions 3.6 and higher of     OpenShift Container Platform, this vulnerability allows cluster-admin level access to any API hosted by an     aggregated API server. This includes the servicecatalog API which is installed by default in 3.7 and     later. Cluster-admin level access to the service catalog allows creation of brokered services by an     unauthenticated user with escalated privileges in any namespace and on any node. This could lead to an     attacker being allowed to deploy malicious code, or alter existing services. (CVE-2018-1002105)

    * nodejs: Out of bounds (OOB) write via UCS-2 encoding (CVE-2018-12115)

    * kibana: Cross-site scripting via the source field formatter (CVE-2018-3830)

    Space precludes documenting all of the bug fixes and enhancements in this advisory. See the following     Release Notes documentation for details about these changes:

    https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.11/release_notes/ocp_3_11_release_notes.html

    All OpenShift Container Platform 3.11 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages and images.
