| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the attacker to already have read access to Grafana's server logs, or to a downstream log store/SIEM those logs are shipped to - this is the core prerequisite (reflected as AV:L/PR:H). The sensitive data is written only under specific conditions: the deployment must authenticate users via the Generic OAuth, Google or GitLab providers, and the leak occurs when an access or ID token is not a valid JWT, when the ID token is missing (only at debug log level), or when the ID token is not a string. Limiting factors that reduce realistic risk: deployments not using these OAuth/OIDC providers are unaffected; the missing-ID-token path requires debug-level logging to be enabled; the value of recovered tokens is bounded by the scopes granted to the configured OAuth client; and the attacker needs standing privileged access to the logs rather than any network-facing entry point. |
| Impact | This is a moderate, contingent-risk issue rather than an urgent emergency. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N, base 6.0) is internally consistent: exploitation is local (AV:L) and requires high privilege (PR:H) because the attacker must already hold read access to Grafana's server logs or to a downstream log store those logs are shipped to. That privilege gate - not a network path - is the dominant limiting factor. The scope change (S:C) with C:H reflects that the leaked artifacts are OAuth/OIDC access, refresh and ID tokens belonging to a separate security authority (the identity provider), so a successful read can impact systems beyond Grafana itself, bounded by the OAuth client's granted scopes. There is no integrity or availability impact (I:N/A:N). No EPSS score was supplied, the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, and no proof-of-concept or exploit reference is present - only the vendor advisory. The vuln.today priority is 'this_month', not act_now/emergency, consistent with the signals: real but not driven by observed widespread exploitation. Net: a genuine confidentiality defect that matters most where log read access is broad or logs are centralized to a SIEM with wider audiences, but it is gated behind privileged log access and depends on specific malformed-/missing-token conditions, so it is not a network-facing critical. Missing signals to state explicitly: EPSS probability is absent, and KEV/POC status is negative, so prioritization rests on vendor data plus the CVSS vector rather than any evidence of active exploitation. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An insider or compromised account with read access to Grafana server logs - or anyone able to query a centralized log store (e.g. a SIEM/ELK stack) that Grafana ships logs to - searches those logs and recovers OAuth/OIDC access, refresh and ID tokens for users who signed in via Generic OAuth, Google or GitLab. The attacker then replays those tokens against the identity provider or downstream APIs, limited to the scopes granted to the configured OAuth client. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; exploitation requires the pre-existing privileged log access reflected in CVSS AV:L/PR:H. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 28, 2026
Grafana's Generic OAuth, Google, and GitLab sign-in integrations can write users' OAuth/OIDC access, refresh, and ID tokens to server logs unredacted, letting anyone with read access to those logs or to the log store they are shipped to recover the tokens. The leak is conditional: it occurs when an access or ID token is not a valid JWT, when the ID token is missing at debug log level, or when the ID token is not a string, and the value of any recovered token is bounded by the scopes granted to the configured OAuth client. Grafana OSS and Grafana Enterprise are affected (CVSS 6.0, AV:L/PR:H), and exploitation requires standing privileged access to the logs; no public exploit is identified at time of analysis.
RemediationAI
No fixed release version is listed in the provided data; consult Grafana's advisory at https://grafana.com/security/security-advisories/cve-2026-79656 to identify and deploy the patched release. Until then, mitigations tied to the reported exposure path are: restrict read access to Grafana server logs and to any downstream log store or SIEM to the minimum set of operators (trade-off: slower troubleshooting and audit work), avoid shipping Grafana logs to broadly readable central stores, and disable debug-level logging where it is not needed, which removes the missing-ID-token path but reduces diagnostic detail. Treat any token that may have been logged as compromised: revoke and rotate OAuth/OIDC tokens at the provider and minimize the scopes granted to the Grafana OAuth client, noting that rotation does not remove copies already persisted in log archives.

CWE-532 (Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log Files) is the root-cause class here: Grafana's OAuth/OIDC sign-in handling emits token material into its own logs instead of redacting it. The CPE data identifies Grafana OSS (cpe:2.3:a:grafana:grafana_oss:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) and Grafana Enterprise (cpe:2.3:a:grafana:grafana_enterprise:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*), with wildcard versions that do not pin a specific range; the vulnerable path applies specifically to deployments that authenticate users through the Generic OAuth, Google, or GitLab providers. Per the description, tokens are written unredacted when an access or ID token is not a valid JWT, when the ID token is missing at debug level, or when the ID token is not a string; the available sources do not describe the underlying code path beyond those conditions. The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N reflects a high-privileged log-access precondition, no user interaction, a scope change, and a confidentiality-only impact, and the sensitive value recovered is bounded by the scopes granted to the configured OAuth client.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A user with read access to Grafana's server logs, or to a log store they are shipped to, can recover the OAuth and OIDC access, refresh and ID tokens of users who sign in through the Generic OAuth, Google or GitLab providers. Grafana writes these tokens to its logs unredacted when an access or ID token is not a valid JWT, when the ID token is missing (at debug level) or is not a string (exposure of sensitive information in log files). The exposure is bounded by the scopes granted to the configured OAuth client.
