FAUCET Score

CVE-2023-49923 is a medium-severity information disclosure vulnerability affecting Elastic App Search within Elastic Enterprise Search. The vulnerability caused the Documents API to log the raw contents of indexed documents at an INFO log level, potentially exposing sensitive data in logs. With a CVSS score of 6.5, this issue has a low attack complexity and requires low privileges for an attacker to potentially access these logs, leading to high confidentiality impact.

There is no evidence of active exploitation, publicly available exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
