Description Przemyslaw Roguski 2020-11-30 12:56:47 UTC 
In the OpenShift Container Platform  4.x the kibana logging console might be manipulated or even completely damaged by any user who create kibana resource in a non openshift-logging namespace. Due to that the console links is recreated by the elasticsearch-operator based on the new CR. If the new kibana resource is removed then the openshift-logging console link does not back to the original one but completely is lost.

This flaw could lead to an arbitrary URL redirection or the openshift-logging console link full damage.
