Hello, I'm using Elasticsearch 8.1.0.  
I configured a es cluster and logged in to kibana as a superuser elastic.  
However, there is an error that never been seen in the previous version.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/5/8/58b1ffb70568398b4641fcf8639561eb246960f1.png)

kibana error message :  
ResponseError: security\_exception: [security\_exception] Reason: action [indices:data/read/search] is unauthorized for user [elastic] with roles [superuser], this action is granted by the index privileges [read,all]

I logged in with the superuser elastic account, but i don't know why it says that I don't have permission ...  
Help me please ..

The issue is solved by adding `monitoring.ui.ccs.enabled: false` in kibana.yml as mentioned in [Stack Monitoring "access denied" after 8.0.0 upgrade · Issue #125756 · elastic/kibana · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/125756)
