Elastic Kibana: denial of service
Medium6.5CVE-2026-72644 · Published Sep 1, 2026 · updated Sep 2, 2026
Uncaught Exception (CWE-248) in Kibana can lead to a denial of service via Input Data Manipulation (CAPEC-153). An authenticated user holding only the low-privileged feature access required to use the Observability AI Assistant can submit a specially crafted request that produces an unhandled error condition, terminating the Kibana process and denying service to all users and spaces on that instance until it is restarted.
