Elasticsearch information disclosure (ESA-2021-03)
Elasticsearch versions before 7.10.0 and 6.8.14 have an information disclosure issue when audit logging and the emit_request_body option is enabled. The Elasticsearch audit log could contain sensitive information such as password hashes or authentication tokens. This could allow an Elasticsearch administrator to view these details.
Affected Versions:
All versions of Elasticsearch before 7.10.0 and 6.8.14 are affected by this flaw
Solutions and Mitigations:
Anyone using audit logging with the xpack.security.audit.logfile.events.emit_request_body enabled should upgrade to Elasticsearch version 7.10.0 or 6.8.14. This issue can be worked around by disabling the emit_request_body option in the elasticsearch.yml file.
