CVE-2026-115290
validatedZero produced an exploit or a check.GHSA-6f4f-c5j2-2rrx ↗EUVD-2026-116072 ↗
description
Elasticsearch is affected by an uncontrolled recursion issue that can cause a node to terminate. An unauthenticated attacker can trigger the condition when they have network access to a node's remote cluster server interface, potentially affecting multiple reachable nodes.
mitigation
Restrict the remote cluster server interface to trusted hosts and networks using firewall rules and network segmentation. Apply the applicable Elasticsearch vendor update after validating the fixed release for your supported branch.
outcome
Contextual check: a technique exists and was validated, but no deterministic check could cover this one.
source signals
Public signals that triggered or updated the pipeline. These are inputs for the deltas above.
