HTTP: Elastic Kibana server.js Local File Inclusion

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Elastic Kibana server. Successful exploitation could lead to information disclosure, denial of service and, in the worst case, achieve arbitrary code execution.

Extended Description

Kibana versions before 6.4.3 and 5.6.13 contain an arbitrary file inclusion flaw in the Console plugin. An attacker with access to the Kibana Console API could send a request that will attempt to execute javascript code. This could possibly lead to an attacker executing arbitrary commands with permissions of the Kibana process on the host system.
