Blocker ---

Courtesy bug for elasticsearch, as found in devel:languages:python and
/security:logging:elma:devel. Not in any openSUSE distribution.

All Elasticsearch versions from 1.0.0 to 1.5.2 are vulnerable to an attack that
uses Elasticsearch to modify files read and executed by certain other
applications.
Upstream bug/commit unknown at the time of writing.

Mitigation:
===========
Users should upgrade to 1.6.0. Alternately, ensure that other applications are
not present on the system, or that Elasticsearch cannot write into areas where
these applications would read.
