CVE-2022-21673: OAuth Identity Token exposure in Grafana

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 18/100)

The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.9% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 80.5% of all records.
Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
Fixed version: grafana (AlmaLinux:8) 7.5.15-3.el8; grafana (AlmaLinux:9) 7.5.15-3.el9; grafana (openSUSE:Leap 15.3) 8.3.5-150200.3.21.1.
Mentioned 2 times in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to grafana (AlmaLinux:8) 7.5.15-3.el8; grafana (AlmaLinux:9) 7.5.15-3.el9; grafana (openSUSE:Leap 15.3) 8.3.5-150200.3.21.1 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Grafana is an open-source platform for monitoring and observability. In affected versions 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. This attack relies on the Grafana instance having data sources that support the Forward OAuth Identity feature, the Grafana instance having a data source with the Forward OAuth Identity feature toggled on, the Grafana instance having OAuth enabled, and the Grafana instance having usable API keys. This issue has been patched in versions 7.5.13 and 8.3.4.
