Summary
Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in Kibana Leading to Denial of Service
Details

Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (CWE-770) in Kibana can lead to denial of service via Excessive Allocation (CAPEC-130). An authenticated user who is authorized to manage maintenance windows could submit a specially crafted, malformed payload that causes the Kibana process to consume excessive resources. Kibana becomes unresponsive for all users and does not recover without manual intervention.
