Kibana Reporting plugin version 2.4.0 is vulnerable to a CSRF vulnerability that could allow an attacker to generate superfluous reports whenever an authenticated Kibana user navigates to a specially-crafted page.

Kibana version 5.4.0 was affected by a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) bug in the Time Series Visual Builder. This bug could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information from Kibana users.

Elastic X-Pack Security versions 5.0.0 to 5.4.0 contain a privilege escalation bug in the run_as functionality. This bug prevents transitioning into the specified user specified in a run_as request. If a role has been created using a template that contains the _user properties, the behavior of run_as will be incorrect. Additionally if the run_as user specified does not exist, the transition will not happen.

Elastic X-Pack Security versions prior to 5.4.1 and 5.3.3 did not always correctly apply Document Level Security to index aliases. This bug could allow a user with restricted permissions to view data they should not have access to when performing certain operations against an index alias.

Starting in version 5.3.0, Kibana had a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Discover page that could allow an attacker to obtain sensitive information from or perform destructive actions on behalf of other Kibana users.

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Elasticsearch Kibana before 4.1.3 and 4.2.x before 4.2.1 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of unspecified victims via unknown vectors.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Elasticsearch before 1.6.1 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors related to snapshot API calls.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Elasticsearch Kibana 4.x before 4.0.3 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the file output plugin in Elasticsearch Logstash before 1.4.3 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via vectors related to dynamic field references in the path option.

Directory traversal vulnerability in Elasticsearch before 1.4.5 and 1.5.x before 1.5.2, when a site plugin is enabled, allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via unspecified vectors.
