Summary

Kibana version 4.6.2 has been released to address a high severity cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability, identified as ESA-2016-07, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the browsers of other users. Users operating Kibana versions 4.3 to 4.6 are advised to upgrade to version 4.6.2 immediately to mitigate this security risk, while version 4.1.11 remains unaffected. The updated version is readily available for download on the official website and through package managers such as apt and yum.
