Description

This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.


1) Stored cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-23552)

CWE-ID: CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote user with the Editor role can inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


2) Spoofing attack (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-39324)

CWE-ID: CWE-451 - User Interface (UI) Misrepresentation of Critical Information (Clickjacking, spoofing)

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform spoofing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to usage of a hidden originalUrl parameter in the shared dashboard. A remote attacker can trick the victim into opening a shared snapshot and click on the button in the Grafana web UI, which will redirect user to an attacker-controlled URL.


3) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41723)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


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 the HPACK decoder. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP/2 stream to the application, cause resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


4) Use of Password Hash Instead of Password for Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-46146)

CWE-ID: CWE-836 - Use of Password Hash Instead of Password for Authentication

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect implementation of basic authentication. A remote attacker with knowledge of the password hash can authenticate against Prometheus without actual knowledge of the password.
