This patch includes a MEDIUM severity security fix for a path traversal/privilege escalation vulnerability in the Grafana Operator.\n\n\n### Summary\n\nThe Grafana Operator supports loading dashboards & library panels using the jsonnet data templating language. The jsonnet expression is evaluated in the context of the operator manager pod.\n\n\n### Impact\n\nIt is possible for a malicious user who can create Dashboard or LibraryPanel resources for a Grafana instance to obtain the Kubernetes service account token of the Grafana Operator manager.\n\n### Affected versions\n\nAll Grafana Operator versions <= 5.23\n\n### Solutions and mitigations\n\nAll installations should be upgraded as soon as possible.\n\nAs a workaround, the following ValidatingAdmissionPolicy prevent the creation or modification of jsonnet based resources:\n\napiVersion: admissionregistration.k8s.io/v1\nkind: ValidatingAdmissionPolicy\nmetadata:\n name: \"prevent-jsonnet-dashboards\"\nspec:\n failurePolicy: Fail\n matchConstraints:\n resourceRules:\n - apiGroups: [\"grafana.integreatly.org\"]\n apiVersions: [\"v1beta1\"]\n operations: [\"CREATE\", \"UPDATE\"]\n resources: [\"grafanadashboards\", \"grafanalibrarypanels\"]\n validations:\n - expression: \"!has(object.spec.jsonnetLib)\"\n---\napiVersion: admissionregistration.k8s.io/v1\nkind: ValidatingAdmissionPolicyBinding\nmetadata:\n name: \"prevent-jsonnet-dashboards-clusterwide\"\nspec:\n policyName: \"prevent-jsonnet-dashboards\"\n validationActions: [Deny]\n\n\n\n### Acknowledgement\n\nWe would like to thank Artem Cherezov for responsibly disclosing the vulnerability." } ], "affected": [ { "vendor": "Grafana", "product": "Grafana Operator", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "versions": [ { "version": "0", "status": "affected", "versionType": "semver", "lessThanOrEqual": "5.23.0" } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://grafana.com/security/security-advisories/cve-2026-11769", "tags": [ "vendor-advisory" ] } ], "metrics": [ { "cvssV4_0": { "version": "4.0", "baseScore": 6.4, "baseSeverity": "MEDIUM", "vectorString": "CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:N" } } ], "credits": [ { "lang": "en", "value": "cherez0ff", "type": "finder" } ], "source": { "discovery": "BUG_BOUNTY" }, "x_generator": { "engine": "cvelib 1.8.0" } }, "adp": [ { "problemTypes": [ { "descriptions": [ { "type": "CWE", "cweId": "CWE-22", "lang": "en", "description": "CWE-22 Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')" } ] } ], "metrics": [ { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "timestamp": "2026-06-15T17:24:16.248300Z", "id": "CVE-2026-11769", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "no" }, { "Technical Impact": "partial" } ], "role": "CISA Coordinator", "version": "2.0.3" } } } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2026-06-16T12:01:19.738Z" } } ] } }
