Prototype pollution in Kibana leads to arbitrary code execution via a crafted file upload and specifically crafted HTTP requests.
In Kibana versions >= 8.15.0 and < 8.17.1, this is exploitable by users with the Viewer role. In Kibana versions 8.17.1 and 8.17.2 , this is only exploitable by users that have roles that contain all the following privileges: fleet-all, integrations-all, actions:execute-advanced-connectors

A server side request forgery vulnerability was identified in Kibana where the /api/fleet/health_check API could be used to send requests to internal endpoints. Due to the nature of the underlying request, only endpoints available over https that return JSON could be accessed. This can be carried out by users with read access to Fleet.

A deserialization issue in Kibana can lead to arbitrary code execution when Kibana attempts to parse a YAML document containing a crafted payload. A successful attack requires a malicious user to have a combination of both specific Elasticsearch indices privileges https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/defining-roles.html#roles-indices-priv and Kibana privileges https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/fleet/current/fleet-roles-and-privileges.html assigned to them.
The following Elasticsearch indices permissions are required
* write privilege on the system indices .kibana_ingest*
* The allow_restricted_indices flag is set to true
Any of the following Kibana privileges are additionally required
* Under Fleet the All privilege is granted
* Under Integration the Read or All privilege is granted
* Access to the fleet-setup privilege is gained through the Fleet Server’s service account token
