DescriptionCVE.org

A testdata data-source can be used to trigger out-of-memory crashes in Grafana.

AnalysisAI

Grafana's testdata data-source plugin allows authenticated users to trigger out-of-memory (OOM) crashes, causing a denial of service affecting availability. The vulnerability requires low-privilege user authentication and network access to the affected Grafana instance, enabling local or remote attackers with valid credentials to exhaust server memory resources without user interaction. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed at the time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in Grafana's testdata data-source component, which is responsible for generating synthetic test data for dashboard visualization and testing purposes. The testdata plugin fails to properly validate or limit memory allocation when processing data-source queries, allowing an attacker to craft malicious requests that trigger unbounded memory consumption. This represents a resource exhaustion weakness where input validation and resource limits are insufficient to prevent denial of service conditions. The CVSS vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) confirms the flaw is remotely exploitable with low complexity and requires low-privilege authentication, resulting in high availability impact. Affected systems are identified via CPE cpe:2.3:a:grafana:grafana:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* across all versions.

RemediationAI

Apply the security patch released by Grafana as detailed in the official security advisory at https://grafana.com/security/security-advisories/cve-2026-28375. As immediate mitigation measures pending patch deployment, restrict access to Grafana instances to trusted networks via firewall rules or reverse proxy configuration, enforce strong authentication with multi-factor authentication to reduce the likelihood of credential compromise by low-privilege users, and monitor Grafana process memory usage for abnormal spikes that may indicate exploitation attempts. Disable or restrict the testdata data-source plugin if it is not required for production workloads.
