**Kibana cross site scripting (XSS) issue (ESA-2020-08)**

The TSVB visualization in Kibana contains a stored XSS flaw. An attacker who is able to edit or create a TSVB visualization could allow the attacker to obtain sensitive information from, or perform destructive actions, on behalf of Kibana users who edit the TSVB visualization.

**Affected Versions**  
All versions of Kibana after 5.4.0 are affected by this flaw

**Solutions and Mitigations**  
Users should upgrade to Kibana version 7.7.1 or 6.8.10. Users unable to upgrade can disable TSVB by setting "metrics.enabled: false" in the kibana.yml file.
