An attacker could serve HTML content through the Grafana datasource or plugin proxy and trick a user to visit this HTML page using a specially crafted link and execute a Cross-si...

When a data source has the Forward OAuth Identity feature enabled, sending a query to that datasource with an API token (and no other user credentials) will forward the OAuth Identity of the most recently logged-in user. This can allow API token holders to retrieve data for which they may not have intended access. ### Impact All of the following must be true: * The Grafana instance has data sources that support the Forward OAuth Identity feature. Graphite users, for example. * Some data sources are not susceptible, like Prometheus, as they do not have support for this feature. * The option being available is not sufficient enough to determine if the data source is susceptible. * The Grafana instance has a data source with the Forward OAuth Identity feature toggled on. * The Grafana instance has OAuth enabled. * The Grafana instance has usable API keys. ### Patches The following Grafana versions have been patched: * `v8.3.4` * `v7.5.13` ### Workarounds Administrators of G...

Today we are releasing Grafana `8.3.2` and `7.5.12`. This patch release includes a moderate severity security fix for directory traversal for arbitrary `.csv` files. It only affects instances that have the developer testing tool called [TestData DB data source](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/datasources/testdata/) enabled and configured. The vulnerability is limited in scope, and only allows access to files with the extension `.csv` to **authenticated users only.** This is a follow-up patch release to our recent [CVE-2021-43798](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-43798) release. If you haven’t read about that high severity security fix, we recommend that you review the [initial blog post](https://grafana.com/blog/2021/12/07/grafana-8.3.1-8.2.7-8.1.8-and-8.0.7-released-with-high-severity-security-fix/), along with our [update on the 0day](https://grafana.com/blog/2021/12/08/an-update-on-0day-cve-2021-43798-grafana-directory-traversal/). Given the attenti...

### Impact On Nov. 2, during an internal security audit, we discovered that when the fine-grained access control beta feature is enabled and there is more than one organization in the Grafana instance, Grafana 8.0 introduced a mechanism which allowed users with the Organization Admin role to list, add, remove, and update users’ roles in other organizations in which they are not an admin. ### Patches Fixed in 8.2.4 ### Workarounds All installations between v8.0 and v8.2.3 that have fine-grained access control beta enabled and more than one organization should be upgraded as soon as possible. If you cannot upgrade, you should turn off the fine-grained access control using a [feature flag](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/enterprise/access-control/#enable-fine-grained-access-control/). Grafana Cloud instances have not been affected by the vulnerability. ### Reporting security issues If you think you have found a security vulnerability, please send a report to [email protected]...
