CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedKibana Fleet is vulnerable due to incorrect authorization, allowing authenticated users with limited privileges to escalate their access by modifying integration policies for different integrations. This privilege abuse can lead to unauthorized management of integration configurations, potentially compromising the security of the system. Organizations using Kibana Fleet, particularly those with sensitive integration policies, should prioritize addressing this vulnerability to mitigate the risk of privilege escalation.
Original NVD Description
Incorrect Authorization (CWE-863) in Kibana Fleet can lead to privilege escalation via Privilege Abuse (CAPEC-122). Fleet restricts some callers to managing integration policies for one specific integration. When an existing integration policy was updated, that restriction was evaluated against the integration recorded on the stored policy rather than against the replacement integration supplied with the update. An authenticated user holding only the Elastic Defend endpoint policy management privilege was therefore able to convert an endpoint policy they administer into a policy for a different integration, and to supply that integration's configuration at the same time.
