Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Elasticsearch. An authenticated user with permissions for at least one resource can exploit improper access controls in the Modify Data Streams application programming interface (API) to alter unauthorized data streams. Successful exploitation allows the user to inject data or disrupt search functionality within those streams, though it does not allow reading unauthorized data.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-06 19:55:27 UTC
Incorrect Authorization (CWE-863) in Elasticsearch can lead to unauthorized data stream modification via Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by ACLs (CAPEC-1). An authenticated user with sufficient privileges over a single resource could use the Modify Data Streams API to modify a data stream to which they were not otherwise authorized, potentially injecting data into it or affecting its ability to be searched normally. This issue does not allow an attacker to read the contents of a data stream they do not otherwise have access to.
