Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in Elasticsearch

GHSA-vpqm-88c4-x4cv · CVE-2018-17244

Published · Modified

Description

Elasticsearch Security versions 6.4.0 to 6.4.2 contain an error in the way request headers are applied to requests when using the Active Directory, LDAP, Native, or File realms. A request may receive headers intended for another request if the same username is being authenticated concurrently; when used with run as, this can result in the request running as the incorrect user. This could allow a user to access information that they should not have access to.
