CVE-2019-7610
Description
An arbitrary code execution flaw was found in Kibana in versions prior to 5.6.15 and 6.6.1. If a Kibana instance has the setting xpack.security.audit.enabled set to true, an attacker could send a request that will attempt to execute javascript code. This could possibly lead to an attacker executing arbitrary commands with permissions of the Kibana process on the host system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
Statement
Red Hat OpenStack Platform 8.0/9.0 Operational Tools Kibana/Elasticsearch versions do not include nor support X-Pack (8/9 versions must use the optional Shield, also not packaged); not affected.
Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.1, and 3.x do not install the vulnerable package (Shield for Kibana 4, and X-Pack for Kibana 5), so the impact is lowered to moderate.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
