2DescriptionCVE.org
Incorrect Authorization (CWE-863) in Fleet Server can lead to a denial of service of agent upload operations via Privilege Abuse (CAPEC-122). Fleet Server does not correctly verify session ownership during multi-part data upload operations, allowing any authenticated agent to interfere with the active upload sessions belonging to other enrolled agents.
AnalysisAI
Incorrect authorization in Elastic Fleet Server allows any authenticated enrolled agent to interfere with multi-part upload sessions belonging to other enrolled agents, causing a denial of service of those upload operations. Fleet Server fails to verify session ownership during chunked data uploads, meaning a low-privileged agent credential is sufficient to disrupt peer agent activity. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires: (1) an authenticated Elastic Agent credential with PR:L - the attacker must control or have compromised an enrolled agent, not merely have network access; (2) a concurrent active multi-part upload session from a different enrolled agent must be in progress at the time of attack (AC:H timing condition); and (3) network access to the Fleet Server upload API endpoint. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L honestly reflects a limited-impact, difficult-to-trigger flaw. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
