Kibana < 7.17.29 / 8.x < 8.17.18 / 8.18.x < 8.18.3 / 9.x < 9.0.3 Multiple Vulnerabilities (ESA-2025-09, ESA-2025-10)

high Nessus Plugin ID 241439

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of Kibana running on the remote host is prior to 7.17.29, 8.x prior to 8.17.18, 8.18.x prior to 8.18.3, or 9.x prior to 9.0.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- Type Confusion in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 134.0.6998.88 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2025-2135)

- URL redirection to an untrusted site ('Open Redirect') in Kibana can lead to sending a user to an arbitrary site and server-side request forgery via a specially crafted URL. (CVE-2025-25012)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Kibana version 7.17.29, 8.17.18, 8.18.3, or 9.0.3 or later.
