CVE-2025-25014 is a critical prototype pollution vulnerability in Elastic Kibana that can lead to arbitrary code execution. The flaw affects Kibana versions 8.3.0 through 8.17.5, 8.18.0, and 9.0.0. It arises from insufficient control over modification of object prototype attributes and is reachable through crafted HTTP requests sent to Kibana Machine Learning and Reporting endpoints. Exploitation is possible on deployments where both Machine Learning and Reporting are enabled. Available reporting indicates the issue is exploitable by a remote authenticated attacker and can result in execution of attacker-controlled code within the affected Kibana environment.
