Kibana 7.7.x < 7.17.23 / 8.0.x < 8.14.2 (ESA-2024-22)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 205597

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of Kibana installed on the remote host is prior to 7.17.23 or 8.14.2. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ESA-2024-22 advisory.

- A flaw allowing arbitrary code execution was discovered in Kibana. An attacker with access to ML and Alerting connector features, as well as write access to internal ML indices can trigger a prototype pollution vulnerability, ultimately leading to arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2024-37287)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Kibana version 7.17.23 / 8.14.2 or later.
