Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-72630 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- kibana (Bitnami): affected from 8.19.0; fixed in 8.19.20, 9.4.5, 9.5.1\n- elk (Bitnami): affected from 8.19.0; fixed in 8.19.20, 9.4.5, 9.5.1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72630/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72630/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-72630","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72630/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-72630","record":{"aliases":["BIT-elk-2026-72630","BIT-kibana-2026-72630","GHSA-27vh-vgp3-g3pg","MINI-29x6-jcjr-mrjf","MINI-72cc-5p6p-42mh","MINI-8vgx-f64f-756w","MINI-9pg8-7366-vv92","MINI-p9fw-f7cj-px9h","MINI-ppf7-hvrw-p4f9","MINI-vq7r-g462-rhxp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Kibana Fleet","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users with limited privileges can escalate permissions by modifying integration policies in Kibana Fleet due to incorrect authorization checks.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"elastic","cpe":[{"product":"kibana","vendor":"elastic"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"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.","ecosystems":["Bitnami"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Incorrect Authorization in Kibana Fleet Leading to Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2026-72630","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":"elastic:kibana","products":["elastic:kibana"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2026"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Improper Privilege Management in Kibana Fleet Leading to Over-Scoped Elastic Agent API Keys","id":"CVE-2026-72631"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["8.19.20","9.4.5","9.5.1"],"introduced":["8.19.0","9.0.0","9.5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"elk","purl":"pkg:bitnami/elk","source":"BIT-elk-2026-72630"},{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["8.19.20","9.4.5","9.5.1"],"introduced":["8.19.0","9.0.0","9.5.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"kibana","purl":"pkg:bitnami/kibana","source":"BIT-kibana-2026-72630"}],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in Kibana","id":"CVE-2026-72629"},"products":["Kibana"],"published":"2026-08-13","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Kibana Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2019-7609","kev_date_added":"2022-01-10","published":"2019-03-25"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Kibana arbitrary code execution via prototype pollution","id":"CVE-2025-25015","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-05"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Deserialization in Kibana","id":"CVE-2024-37288","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-09"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Code injection in Kibana","id":"CVE-2023-31415","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-04"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in Kibana","id":"CVE-2018-17245","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in Kibana","id":"CVE-2018-17246","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-20"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Kibana arbitrary code execution via prototype pollution","id":"CVE-2025-25014","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-06"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-14","vendors":["Elastic"]},"summary":"Authenticated users with limited privileges can escalate permissions by modifying integration policies in Kibana Fleet due to incorrect authorization checks.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72630/"}
