Hi everyone, I recently upgraded my Elastic stack version from v7.11.2 to v7.12.0, and I'm starting to see some weird behavior on both filters and controls visualizations on embedded dashboards from Kibana. I guess the behavior I'm experiencing with the controls visualization is due to it using Kibana filters internally, which would mean everything is just a bug on the filters. Searching through the different opened issues at GitHub, I've been able to find the ones that actually describe the problem that I'm facing right now: > > > Kibana version: 7.11, 7.12 > Describe the bug: > Part of #93200. When viewing a dashboard from an iframe, filter changes are not applied to... > > > Kibana version: 7.11, 7.12 > Describe the bug: > Part of #93200. If a filter is added, and the refresh button is clicked, the filter... Despite these issues saying that these problems were already present in v7.11.x, I can say for sure that it was v7.12.0 that introduced these bugs, since I've had a stable and updated cluster with all three v7.11.0, v7.11.1 and v7.11.2, and never experienced these issues before last Friday when I decided to upgrade the cluster to v7.12.0 after carefully reading the release notes. Although the issues have been officially reported for almost three weeks now, I don't see they are attracting quite the attention they deserve, so I was wondering if this is not an isolated issue due to some specific configuration I have or it is indeed a version-wide bug. It could, of course, also be a browser compatibility problem with some new `iframe` policy I'm not aware about, but I've already tested it in all Chrome, Firefox and Edge (in their latest versions), and all three present the same problems. Is this actually a bug? Has anyone been able to reproduce it? Has anyone found any feasible workaround so far while Elastic addresses it? ---

Hi @a.deharo, this is indeed a Kibana bug, and is version-wide. There hasn't been much activity on the issue, but I've been researching and building a fix. This should be available for 7.12.1. As for which version it initially appeared in, I can double check 7.11 locally and see if it works correctly. If so, I will remove the 7.11 tag from those issues. Thank you for raising this, and we will be in touch as things change. ---

I was able to identify and patch the issue here: > It looks like the code that caused the issue was added in 7.11.0 ---

Thank you so much @devon.thomson for your quick response! Looking forward for the update to v7.12.1 😄 How curious, even with the code being introduced in v7.11.x, it didn't trigger any visible errors (at least to me) up to v7.12.0. Any way, thank you so much! ---

Hi Guys, We are facing this issue as well. Thanks for the upcoming fix. We use Cloud operator on K8 to setup our stack. Will the V7.12.1 release also include a new Kibana docker image with that new release? If we wish to do an interim fix before the docker image is available, can we use the code base and create a custom image? Thank you very much. ---

@Phani_Vemuri yes, the 7.12.1 release will include the new Kibana docker image. If you really need the fix immediately I think you can access the manifest file from the snapshot build this morning here [https://snapshots.elastic.co/7.12.1-0a0d16c3/manifest-7.12.1-SNAPSHOT.json](https://snapshots.elastic.co/7.12.1-0a0d16c3/manifest-7.12.1-SNAPSHOT.json) and get the link to the snapshot docker image. **WARNING:** You should not use a snapshot build in production. It is unsupported. In addition, upgrading from a production build to a snapshot build or from a snapshot build to a production build is not supported. Licenses are not compatible between snapshot and production builds. You may also have problems using a Kibana snapshot build with a production Elasticsearch build. You should really only use snapshot builds for testing purposes. Regards, Lee ---

Thanks, @LeeDr . I downloaded the Kibana snapshot and will use it for test. I am assuming that Kibana can run on a higher patch version than Elasticsearch. > **[Set up | Kibana Guide \[7.12\] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/setup.html)** How do we track an expected delivery date for the official build?

Just to confirm that the fix works after applying 7.12.1. Thank you ---
