| CVE | Severity | Published▾ | Status | Exploitation | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2025-37731 | High | 2025-12-15 | No exploit published | No public exploit | Improper Authentication in Elasticsearch PKI realm can lead to user impersonation via specially crafted client certificates. A malicious actor would need to have such a crafted client certificate signed by a legitimate, trusted Certificate Authority. |
| CVE-2024-52979 | High | 2025-05-01 | No exploit published | No public exploit | Uncontrolled Resource Consumption in Elasticsearch while evaluating specifically crafted search templates with Mustache functions can lead to Denial of Service by causing the Elasticsearch node to crash. |
| CVE-2024-52981 | High | 2025-04-08 | No exploit published | No public exploit | An issue was discovered in Elasticsearch, where a large recursion using the Well-KnownText formatted string with nested GeometryCollection objects could cause a stackoverflow. |
| CVE-2024-43709 | High | 2025-01-21 | No exploit published | No public exploit | An allocation of resources without limits or throttling in Elasticsearch can lead to an OutOfMemoryError exception resulting in a crash via a specially crafted query using an SQL function. |
| CVE-2024-23444 | High | 2024-07-31 | No exploit published | No public exploit | It was discovered by Elastic engineering that when elasticsearch-certutil CLI tool is used with the csr option in order to create a new Certificate Signing Requests, the associated private key that is generated is stored on disk unencrypted even if the --pass parameter is passed in the command invocation. |
| CVE-2024-23450 | High | 2024-03-27 | No exploit published | No public exploit | A flaw was discovered in Elasticsearch, where processing a document in a deeply nested pipeline on an ingest node could cause the Elasticsearch node to crash. |
| CVE-2023-46674 | High | 2023-12-05 | Protected by Waratek | No public exploit | An issue was identified that allowed the unsafe deserialization of java objects from hadoop or spark configuration properties that could have been modified by authenticated users. Elastic would like to thank Yakov Shafranovich, with Amazon Web Services for reporting this issue. |
| CVE-2023-46673 | High | 2023-11-22 | No exploit published | No public exploit | It was identified that malformed scripts used in the script processor of an Ingest Pipeline could cause an Elasticsearch node to crash when calling the Simulate Pipeline API. |
| CVE-2021-37942 | High | 2023-11-22 | No exploit published | No public exploit | A local privilege escalation issue was found with the APM Java agent, where a user on the system could attach a malicious plugin to an application running the APM Java agent. By using this vulnerability, an attacker could execute code at a potentially higher level of permissions than their user typically has access to. |
| CVE-2023-31419 | High | 2023-10-26 | Mitigation candidate | Proof of concept only | A flaw was discovered in Elasticsearch, affecting the _search API that allowed a specially crafted query string to cause a Stack Overflow and ultimately a Denial of Service. |
| CVE-2023-31418 | High | 2023-10-26 | No exploit published | No public exploit | An issue has been identified with how Elasticsearch handled incoming requests on the HTTP layer. An unauthenticated user could force an Elasticsearch node to exit with an OutOfMemory error by sending a moderate number of malformed HTTP requests. The issue was identified by Elastic Engineering and we have no indication that the issue is known or that it is being exploited in the wild. |
| CVE-2022-23712 | High | 2022-06-06 | No exploit published | No public exploit | A Denial of Service flaw was discovered in Elasticsearch. Using this vulnerability, an unauthenticated attacker could forcibly shut down an Elasticsearch node with a specifically formatted network request. |
| CVE-2020-7014 | High | 2020-06-03 | No exploit published | No public exploit | The fix for CVE-2020-7009 was found to be incomplete. Elasticsearch versions from 6.7.0 to 6.8.7 and 7.0.0 to 7.6.1 contain a privilege escalation flaw if an attacker is able to create API keys and also authentication tokens. An attacker who is able to generate an API key and an authentication token can perform a series of steps that result in an authentication token being generated with elevated privileges. |
| CVE-2020-7009 | High | 2020-03-31 | No exploit published | No public exploit | Elasticsearch versions from 6.7.0 before 6.8.8 and 7.0.0 before 7.6.2 contain a privilege escalation flaw if an attacker is able to create API keys. An attacker who is able to generate an API key can perform a series of steps that result in an API key being generated with elevated privileges. |
| CVE-2018-3831 | High | 2018-09-19 | No exploit published | No public exploit | Elasticsearch Alerting and Monitoring in versions before 6.4.1 or 5.6.12 have an information disclosure issue when secrets are configured via the API. The Elasticsearch _cluster/settings API, when queried, could leak sensitive configuration information such as passwords, tokens, or usernames. This could allow an authenticated Elasticsearch user to improperly view these details. |
| CVE-2014-3120 | High | 2014-07-28 | Protected by Waratek | Exploited | The default configuration in Elasticsearch before 1.2 enables dynamic scripting, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary MVEL expressions and Java code via the source parameter to _search. NOTE: this only violates the vendor's intended security policy if the user does not run Elasticsearch in its own independent virtual machine. |
