"The version of Kibana installed on the remote host is 8.x prior to 8.19.20, or 9.x prior to 9.4.5. It is, therefore,
affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ESA-2026-87 and ESA-2026-88 advisories.
- A lower privileged user who holds only the privilege to read agent policies can read the entire
configuration of a configured Fleet proxy. This would normally require the Fleet privilege to read
settings.The proxy configuration possibly contains proxy authentication credentials and private key
material that they should not be authorized to view. (CVE-2026-72670)
- A Kibana Machine Learning capability that removes a saved object from the current space accepts machine
learning trained models as a target, but it verifies only the privileges that apply to anomaly detection
jobs and data frame analytics jobs. A user whose role grants create anomaly detection jobs and data frame
analytics jobs without the trained model privilege can therefore remove a trained model from a space. The
model itself is not deleted and remains available in its other spaces, and the change can be reversed by a
suitably privileged user. (CVE-2026-72671)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported
version number.");
