CVE-2026-84942
Improper input validation in the Vega expression function implementation in OpenSearch Dashboards allows a remote authenticated actor with dashboard write permissions to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the context of other users' browser sessions by saving a crafted Vega visualization. The checkForFunctionProperty validation routine failed to recurse into arrays of objects, allowing a function property nested inside an array to bypass validation.
