Vulnerability Summary: All Elasticsearch versions prior to 1.5.2 and

attacker to retrieve files from the server running Elasticsearch when
one or more site plugins are installed, or when Windows is the server
OS.

Remediation Summary: Users should upgrade to 1.4.5 or 1.5.2. Users
that do not want to upgrade can address the vulnerability by disabling
site plugins. See the CVE description for additional options."
