DescriptionCVE.org

A request to the Grafana plugin resources endpoint can cause unbounded memory allocation by reading the entire request body into memory. An authenticated user can exploit this to trigger an out-of-memory condition, potentially causing a denial of service.

AnalysisAI

Unbounded memory allocation in Grafana OSS's plugin resources endpoint allows any authenticated low-privileged user to trigger an out-of-memory condition by sending a sufficiently large HTTP request body, resulting in denial of service against the Grafana instance. Affected versions span a wide range from 6.7.0 through 13.0.1, with vendor-released security patches available across all supported branches. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Authenticate to Grafana with low-privilege account
Delivery
Craft oversized HTTP request body
Exploit
Send request to plugin resources endpoint
Execution
Grafana reads entire body into heap without size limit
Persist
Memory exhausted on Grafana host
Impact
Grafana process killed or unresponsive (DoS)

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires a valid authenticated session in Grafana with at least low-privilege access (confirmed by CVSS PR:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Several signals collectively indicate this is a low-to-moderate real-world priority despite the CVSS 6.5 base score. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated Grafana user - even one holding only the default Viewer or Editor role - crafts an HTTP POST or PUT request with an arbitrarily large body and sends it to the Grafana plugin resources endpoint. The Grafana backend allocates memory proportional to the full request body size without bounds, and with sufficient request size or repeated requests, exhausts available system memory, causing the Grafana process to be killed by the OS OOM killer or become unresponsive. …
Remediation The primary remediation is to upgrade to the appropriate vendor-released security patch for your installed branch: 11.6.14+security-04 for the 11.x line, 12.2.8+security-04 for the 12.2.x line, 12.3.6+security-04 for the 12.3.x line, 12.4.3+security-02 for the 12.4.x line, or 13.0.1+security-01 for the 13.x line. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
