Uncontrolled Resource Consumption (CWE-400) in Kibana can lead to a denial of service via Excessive Allocation (CAPEC-130). An authenticated user holding a low-privileged role can submit a specially crafted, oversized payload to an internal Kibana API, causing the Kibana process to exhaust available resources and become unresponsive to all users until the service recovers or is restarted.
