Vulnerability Title
Stored Path Traversal in Kibana Leading to Unauthorized Deletion of Internal Resources
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') (CWE-22) in the Kibana Fleet feature can lead to the unauthorized deletion of internal resources via Path Traversal (CAPEC-126). A low-privileged user holding Fleet write access could cause a subsequent administrative delete action to act on unintended internal resources. Exploitation requires an administrator to interact with the affected Fleet interface.
