Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-04-01 23:38:34 UTC
Description:
"Elasticsearch versions from 6.7.0 to 6.8.7 and 7.0.0 to 7.6.1 contain a privilege escalation flaw if an attacker is able to create API keys. An attacker who is able to generate an API key can perform a series of steps that result in an API key being generated with elevated privileges."
