A vulnerability in Kibana's Elastic Security case management allows authenticated users without case editing privileges to modify case data. This occurs because the case management API does not enforce the same authorization checks as the user interface, enabling low-privileged users to alter case records they should only view. The issue affects versions 8.0.0 up to but not including 8.19.20, and 9.0.0 up to but not including 9.4.5. A patch is available to address this improper authorization enforcement.

Improperly Controlled Modification of Dynamically-Determined Object Attributes (CWE-915) in the case management functionality of Elastic Security in Kibana can lead to unauthorized modification of case data by an authenticated user who has not been granted case editing privileges, via Manipulating User-Controlled Variables (CAPEC-77). Object attributes accepted by the case management API were not subject to the same authorization enforcement applied in the user interface, so a low-privileged user could alter case records they were only entitled to view.
