Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-27664)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to an HTTP/2 connection can hang during closing if shutdown were preempted by a fatal error. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-2880)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform parameter smuggling attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect handling of requests forwarded by ReverseProxy in net/http/httputil. A remote attacker can supply specially crafted parameters that cannot be parsed and are rejected by net/http and force the application to include these parameters into the forwarding request. As a result, a remote attacker can smuggle potentially dangerous HTTP parameters into the request.
3) Authentication bypass using an alternate path or channel (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-35957)
The vulnerability allows a remote user to escalate privileges within the application.
The vulnerability exists due to the way Grafana handles authorization process when Auth proxy authentication is used. A remote user with admin privileges can authenticate as Server Admin by providing the username (or email) in a X-WEBAUTH-USER HTTP header.
4) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-39229)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to deny access to the application.
The vulnerability exists due to a logic error in the authentication process, where application allows usage of the same email address by different accounts. A remote user can set an existing email address that belongs to another user as their username and prevent that user from accessing the application.
5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41715)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources in regexp/syntax when handling regular expressions. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
