A permission issue was found in Elasticsearch when Field Level Security and Document Level Security are disabled and the _aliases,
_shrink, or _split endpoints are used . If the elasticsearch.yml file has xpack.security.dls_fls.enabled set to false, certain permission checks are skipped when users perform one of the actions mentioned above, to make existing data available under a new index/alias name.
This could result in an attacker gaining additional permissions against a restricted index.
