+
+### Fixes [elastic-security-9.2.0-fixes]
+
+* Fixes an issue where the names of the `Security solution default` and `Security solution alerts` data views were displayed incorrectly [#238354]({{kib-pull}}238354).
+* Fixes an issue where the navigation manu overlapped expandable flyouts [#236655]({{kib-pull}}236655).
+* Ensures the data view picker icon is always vertically centered [#236379]({{kib-pull}}236379).
+* Integrates data view logic into host KPIs charts [#236084]({{kib-pull}}236084).
+* Fixes integrations RAG in automatic migration rule translations [#234211]({{kib-pull}}234211).
+* Removes the feature flag for privileged user monitoring [#233960]({{kib-pull}}233960).
+* Returns a 500 response code if there is an error during privileged user monitoring engine initialization [#234368]({{kib-pull}}234368).
+* Ensures that privileged user `@timestamp` and `event.ingested` fields are updated when a privileged user is updated [#233735]({{kib-pull}}233735).
+* Fixes a bug in privileged user monitoring index synchronization where stale users weren't removed after index pattern changes [#229789]({{kib-pull}}229789).
+* Updates the privileged user monitoring UI to replace hard-coded CSS values with the EUI theme [#225307]({{kib-pull}}225307).
+* Fixes incorrect threat enrichment for partially matched `AND` conditions in indicator match rules [#230773]({{kib-pull}}230773).
+* Adds a validation error to prevent users from setting a custom action interval shorter than the rule's check interval [#229976]({{kib-pull}}229976).
+* Fixes accessibility issues on the **Benchmarks** page [#229521]({{kib-pull}}229521).
+* Simplifies the Cloud Security Posture Misconfigurations data view by removing redundancy in the index pattern definition [#227995]({{kib-pull}}227995).
+* Fixes an {{elastic-defend}} issue on Linux by preventing unnecessary locking within Malware Protections to avoid invalid watchdog firings.
+* Fixes issues that could sometimes cause crashes of the {{elastic-defend}} user-mode process on very busy Windows systems.
+* Addresses CVE-2025-##### in {{elastic-defend}} on Windows, which could allow a low-privilege attacker to delete arbitrary files on the system. On Windows versions before 25H2, this could result in local privilege escalation.
+* Adds support in {{elastic-defend}} for installing eBPF event probes on Linux endpoints when cgroup2 is mounted in a non-standard location or not mounted at all.
+* Adds support in {{elastic-defend}} for installing eBPF probes on Linux endpoints when taskstats is compiled out of the kernel.
+* Fixes an issue in {{elastic-defend}} where Linux network events could have source and destination bytes swapped.
+* Fixes a bug where Linux capabilities were included in {{elastic-endpoint}} network events despite being disabled.
+* Fixes an issue where {{elastic-defend}} would incorrectly calculate throughput capacity when sending documents to output. This may have limited event throughput on extremely busy endpoints.
+* Improves the reliability of local {{elastic-defend}} administrative shell commands. In rare cases, a command could fail to execute due to issues with interprocess communication.
+* Fixes an issue in {{elastic-defend}} where host isolation could auto-release incorrectly. Host isolation now only releases when {{elastic-endpoint}} becomes orphaned. Intermittent {{elastic-agent}} connectivity changes no longer alter the host isolation state.
+* Fixes a bug in {{elastic-defend}} where Linux endpoints would report `process.executable` as a relative, instead of absolute, path.
+* Fixes an improper status in process remediation, when a cancelled process cannot be stopped because it's being debugged.
+* Fixes an issue in {{elastic-defend}} installation logging where only the first character of install paths (usually 'C') was logged.
+* Prevents {{elastic-endpoint}} from stopping system-critical processes or threads.
+* Fixes an issue to improve reliability of health status reporting between {{elastic-endpoint}} and {{agent}}.
+* Fixes a race condition in {{elastic-defend}} that occasionally resulted in corrupted process command lines on Windows. This could cause incorrect values for `process.command_line`, `process.args_count`, and `process.args`, leading to false positives.
+* Fixes an issue in {{elastic-defend}} that could result in a crash if a specified {{ls}} output configuration contained a certificate that couldn't be parsed.
