Hi team,

we are using kibana 7.7.1 and our security team has found that the config path /opt/kibana-7.7.1-linux-x86\_64/ is visible when we do view source code on browser for kibana dashboard.

/opt/kibana-7.7.1-linux-x86\_64/x-pack/plugins this path is also visible in the source code.

The remote web application discloses path information.  
kindly let me know is this a vulnerability ? how can we disable this ?
