=== Security updates
* In {kib} 6.8.11 and earlier, there is a denial of service (DoS) flaw in Timelion. Attackers can construct a URL that when viewed by a {kib} user,
the {kib} process consumes large amounts of CPU and becomes unresponsive, CVE-2020-7016.
+
You must upgrade to 6.8.11. If you are unable to upgrade, set `timelion.enabled` to `false` in your kibana.yml file to disable Timelion.
* In all {kib} versions, region map visualizations contain a stored XSS flaw. Attackers that can edit or create region map visualizations can obtain
sensitive information or perform destructive actions on behalf of {kib} users who view the region map visualization, CVE-2020-7017.
+
You must upgrade to 6.8.11. If you are unable to upgrade, set `xpack.maps.enabled`, `region_map.enabled`, and `tile_map.enabled` to `false` in kibana.yml to disable map visualizations.
