I'm afraid those are old versions and the recommended path would be to upgrade.

If that's not an option you can check from the issue I linked that you can:

- Try to see if your GeoJSON file can be improved/fixed using the [`mapshaper`](https://github.com/mbloch/mapshaper/) command line tool so Kibana Maps is able to index it.
- Use a different uploading tool instead of Kibana Maps like `ogr2ogr` as described in [this blogpost](https://www.elastic.co/blog/how-to-ingest-geospatial-data-into-elasticsearch-with-gdal). A similar process also described in [this other post](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/dec-6th-2020-en-uploading-data-from-osm-into-elasticsearch/255059).

Hope it helps
