Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Elastic Kibana up to 8.19.9/9.1.9/9.2.3 and classified as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown processing. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a server-side request forgery vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-918. The web server receives a URL or similar request from an upstream component and retrieves the contents of this URL, but it does not sufficiently ensure that the request is being sent to the expected destination. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

External Control of File Name or Path (CWE-73) combined with Server-Side Request Forgery (CWE-918) can allow an attacker to cause arbitrary file disclosure through a specially crafted credentials JSON payload in the Google Gemini connector configuration. This requires an attacker to have authenticated access with privileges sufficient to create or modify connectors (Alerts & Connectors: All). The server processes a configuration without proper validation, allowing for arbitrary network requests and for arbitrary file reads.

The advisory is shared for download at discuss.elastic.co. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2026-0532 since 12/19/2025. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be launched remotely.
