Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Elasticsearch versions prior to 7.11.2 Elasticsearch versions prior to 6.8.15

Description A document disclosure flaw was found in the Elasticsearch suggester and profile API when Document and Field Level Security are enabled. Normally, the suggester and profile API are disabled for an index when document level security is enabled on the index. However, certain queries can enable the profiler and suggester, potentially disclosing the existence of documents and fields that the attacker should not be able to view.

Recommendations For Elasticsearch versions prior to 7.11.2, update to version 7.11.2 or later. For Elasticsearch versions prior to 6.8.15, update to version 6.8.15 or later.
