DescriptionNVD

When a user's access to mint tokens for a service account is revoked, it is sometimes still possible to do so for a few seconds after the event. The user will eventually lose access to do this.

AnalysisAI

Privilege revocation race condition in Grafana OSS allows a user whose service-account token-minting permission was just revoked to continue minting tokens for several seconds after the revocation event. The flaw, tagged as an authentication bypass affecting multiple supported branches of Grafana OSS (11.x, 12.x, 13.x), can yield high confidentiality and integrity impact by granting persistent API access via newly minted service-account tokens. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is very low (0.03%), and SSVC marks exploitation as none - but the vendor has issued patches across all affected branches.

Technical ContextAI

Grafana OSS is the open-source observability platform from Grafana Labs. Service accounts are machine identities within Grafana that can be granted API tokens for programmatic access to dashboards, datasources, and admin endpoints. The vulnerability is a classic CWE-284 (Improper Access Control) race/staleness condition: the permission check that gates the 'mint service-account token' operation relies on cached or eventually-consistent authorization state, so for a brief window after a privilege revocation the user's prior entitlement is still honored. Because minted tokens carry their own lifetime independent of the user's session, the issued token outlives the revocation window and provides continued access.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patches are available: upgrade to 11.6.14+security-04, 12.2.8+security-04, 12.3.6+security-04, 12.4.3+security-02, or 13.0.1+security-01 according to your deployed branch, per https://grafana.com/security/security-advisories/cve-2026-33381. As a compensating control during the offboarding workflow, immediately revoke or rotate any service-account tokens owned by or accessible to a user whose permissions you are downgrading, rather than relying solely on the permission change - this closes the race window at the cost of operational overhead and possible disruption to automation that depended on those tokens. Where feasible, also audit Grafana audit logs for serviceaccounts/tokens creation events in the seconds following recent permission revocations to detect possible past abuse.
