Kibana users need access to the .kibana index. Look at the default kibana_user role to see what this looks like for a user that is allowed to view, create and update kibana objects. Based on this you could create a kibana_readonly_user role, which does only have read privileges on the .kibana index. For each Kibana user, then assign one of these roles depending on access level.
