CVE-2019-13421
Search Guard versions before 23.1 had an issue that an administrative user is able to retrieve bcrypt password hashes of other users configured in the internal user database.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.13%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
