Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.44%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK) versions prior to 1.1.0 generate passwords using a weak random number generator. If an attacker is able to determine when the current Elastic Stack cluster was deployed they may be able to more easily brute force the Elasticsearch credentials generated by ECK.
