QID 730643: Grafana Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

Grafana is an open-source, general purpose dashboard and graph composer, which runs as a web application.

A race condition exists in the Grafana codebase, which allows an unauthenticated user to query an arbitrary endpoint in Grafana. A race condition in the HTTP context creation could result in an HTTP request being assigned the authentication/authorization middlewares of another call. Under heavy load, it is possible that a call protected by a privileged middleware receives the middleware of a public query instead.

Affected Versions:
Grafana 9.2.x versions prior to 9.2.4.

QID Detection Logic (Unauthenticated):
This QID checks for vulnerable version of Grafana from the server response

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow remote unauthenticated attacker to query protected endpoints.

  • CVSS V3 rated as Critical - 8.1 severity.
  • CVSS V2 rated as Critical - 10 severity.
  • Solution
