Insertion of Sensitive Information into Externally-Accessible File or Directory (CWE-538) in Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE) can lead to credential disclosure via Retrieve Embedded Sensitive Data (CAPEC-37). ECE stores runtime information about platform service containers in a location that lower-privileged platform components can read, and this information includes secrets from the container configuration. An attacker with access to the internal ECE platform services can obtain these secrets, which include role tokens. A role token can let the attacker add an unauthorized host to the installation with the roles of that token.

Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key (CWE-639) in Elastic Cloud Enterprise (ECE) can lead to privilege escalation via Privilege Abuse (CAPEC-122). An attacker who controls any host in an ECE installation can obtain credentials that are reserved for other platform roles. These credentials can give the attacker full control of the ECE control plane and of the deployments that it manages.

An issue has been identified with how Elasticsearch handled incoming requests on the HTTP layer. An unauthenticated user could force an Elasticsearch node to exit with an OutOfMemory error by sending a moderate number of malformed HTTP requests. The issue was identified by Elastic Engineering and we have no indication that the issue is known or that it is being exploited in the wild.
