Synopsis

Kibana 8.15.x < 8.17.3 Prototype Pollution

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the Kibana application running on the remote host is 8.15.x prior to 8.17.3. It is, therefore, affected by a code execution via a crafted file upload and specifically crafted HTTP requests

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Kibana version 8.17.3 or later.
