Path Traversal (CVE-2021-43798)

Summary

On 2021-12-03, we received a report that Grafana is vulnerable to directory traversal, allowing access to local files. We have confirmed this for versions 8.0.0-beta1 to 8.3.0. Thanks to our defense-in-depth approach, at no time has Grafana Cloud been vulnerable.

The vulnerable URL path is: /public/plugins//, where is the plugin ID for any installed plugin.

Every Grafana instance comes with pre-installed plugins like the Prometheus plugin or MySQL plugin so the following URLs are vulnerable for every instance:

/public/plugins/alertlist/
/public/plugins/annolist/
/public/plugins/barchart/
/public/plugins/bargauge/
/public/plugins/candlestick/
/public/plugins/cloudwatch/
/public/plugins/dashlist/
/public/plugins/elasticsearch/
/public/plugins/gauge/
/public/plugins/geomap/
/public/plugins/gettingstarted/
/public/plugins/grafana-azure-monitor-datasource/
/public/plugins/graph/
/public/plugins/heatmap/
/public/plugins/histogram/
/public/plugins/influxdb/
/public/plugins/jaeger/
/public/plugins/logs/
/public/plugins/loki/
/public/plugins/mssql/
/public/plugins/mysql/
/public/plugins/news/
/public/plugins/nodeGraph/
/public/plugins/opentsdb
/public/plugins/piechart/
/public/plugins/pluginlist/
/public/plugins/postgres/
/public/plugins/prometheus/
/public/plugins/stackdriver/

/public/plugins/tempo/
/public/plugins/testdata/
/public/plugins/text/
/public/plugins/timeseries/
/public/plugins/welcome/
/public/plugins/zipkin/

We have received CVE-2021-43798 for this issue. The CVSS score for this vulnerability is 7.5 High (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) for Grafana versions 8.0.0-beta1 to 8.3.0

Affected versions with high severity

Grafana 8.0.0-beta1 to 8.3.0

Solutions and mitigations

All installations between v8.0.0-beta1 and v8.3.0 should be upgraded as soon as possible.

If you can not upgrade, running a reverse proxy in front of Grafana that normalizes the PATH of the request will mitigate the vulnerability. For example the normalize_path setting in envoy.

Thanks to our defense-in-depth approach, Grafana Cloud instances have not been affected by the vulnerability.

As always, we closely coordinated with all cloud providers licensed to offer Grafana Pro. They have received early notification under embargo and confirmed that their offerings are secure at the time of this announcement. In alphabetical order, this is applicable to Amazon Managed Grafana, and Azure Managed Grafana.

Timeline and postmortem

Here is a detailed timeline starting from when we originally learned of the issue. All times in UTC.

2021-12-03: Security researcher sends the initial report
2021-12-03: Confirmed for 8.0.0-beta1 through 8.3.0
2021-12-03: Confirmed that Grafana Cloud is not vulnerable
2021-12-03: Security fix determined and committed to Git
2021-12-03: Release timeline determined: 2021-12-07 for private customer release, 2021-12-14 for public release
2021-12-06: Second report about the vulnerability received
2021-12-07: We received information that the vulnerability has been leaked to the public, turning it into a 0 day
2021-12-07: Decision made to release as quickly as feasible
2021-12-07: Private release with reduced two hour grace period instead of the usual 1 week
2021-12-07: Public release
