Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Kibana, where an authenticated user, through a crafted HTTP request, can exploit an Improper Authorization (CWE-285) vulnerability. This allows the user to change a document's sharing type to "global" without proper permissions. The consequence is unauthorized information disclosure, making the document visible to everyone in the space, effectively leading to a form of privilege escalation.

Improper Authorization (CWE-285) in Kibana can lead to privilege escalation (CAPEC-233) by allowing an authenticated user to change a document's sharing type to "global," even though they do not have permission to do so, making it visible to everyone in the space via a crafted a HTTP request.
