Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires that the target deployment (a) uses the Auth Proxy authentication provider, (b) configures its allow-list with at least one IPv6 entry written without an explicit CIDR mask, and (c) is reachable by the attacker from somewhere inside the resulting /32 IPv6 range that Grafana mistakenly trusts. Exploitation is constrained by the fact that IPv4-only Auth Proxy deployments, IPv6 entries already written with /128 (or any explicit mask), and deployments using Okta, SAML, or LDAP instead of Auth Proxy are not affected; the attacker also needs network-adjacent IPv6 positioning within the unintentionally trusted block, which is why CVSS marks attack complexity as High.

Impact

Signals are mixed but coherent: CVSS 7.4 with C:H/I:H/A:N reflects the severity of an authentication bypass leading to confidentiality and integrity loss, while AC:H accurately captures that exploitation requires a non-default but realistic misconfiguration (IPv6 deployment of Auth Proxy with mask-less entries). EPSS of 0.03% (9th percentile) and SSVC 'Exploitation: none / Automatable: no' indicate no observed in-the-wild activity, and the issue is not on the CISA KEV list - though SSVC Technical Impact is rated 'total,' consistent with full session takeover where exploitable. The realistic priority is moderate: organizations running Auth Proxy with IPv6 allow-lists and bare addresses face a serious bypass, but those using IPv4-only Auth Proxy, explicit /128 masks, or alternative auth providers (Okta, SAML, LDAP) are not exposed. No conflicting data signals were identified in the provided intelligence.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker on the same IPv6 /32 block as the legitimate reverse proxy - for instance, sharing a hosting provider, cloud region, or transit network with the Grafana operator - crafts HTTP requests directly to the Grafana backend including the X-WEBAUTH-USER header with an admin username. Because the source address falls within the over-broad /32 range that Grafana treats as trusted Auth Proxy origin, the request is accepted as pre-authenticated and the attacker obtains the targeted user's session and dashboards. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jun 08, 2026

Authentication bypass in Grafana OSS Auth Proxy allows remote attackers to circumvent IPv6 allow-list restrictions because the feature applies a /32 default mask to IPv6 addresses instead of the appropriate /128, dramatically widening the trusted address space and potentially admitting unauthorized clients into authenticated sessions. The flaw is confined to the Auth Proxy authentication path - Okta, SAML, and LDAP integrations are unaffected - and at this time there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, with EPSS at 0.03% and SSVC marking exploitation as 'none.'

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patches are available - upgrade Grafana OSS 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 depending on your release line, per the Grafana security advisory at https://grafana.com/security/security-advisories/cve-2026-33376. As an immediate workaround that does not require a restart of the upgrade window, edit the Auth Proxy allow-list and append an explicit mask (typically /128) to every IPv6 entry so the configured host is interpreted literally; this fully neutralizes the default-mask flaw with no functional side effect beyond a config edit. If patching is delayed and a mask change is not feasible, consider temporarily disabling the Auth Proxy provider and falling back to Okta, SAML, or LDAP (which are confirmed unaffected), accepting that this changes the operator login flow and may require updating reverse-proxy routing.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Grafana's Auth Proxy feature trusts upstream reverse proxies to assert authenticated user identity via headers, gated by an IP allow-list of permitted proxy addresses. The underlying defect is CWE-1188 (Insecure Default Initialization of Resource): when an operator lists a bare IPv6 address without an explicit CIDR mask, Grafana applies the IPv4-appropriate /32 default instead of the IPv6 host mask /128. Because /32 in IPv6 space covers 2^96 addresses, the configured 'single-host' entry silently expands to an enormous network range, allowing any host within that range to be treated as a trusted Auth Proxy origin. The CPE confirms only grafana:grafana_oss is in scope.

DescriptionCVE.org

When using an IPv6 allow-list for the Auth Proxy feature, it defaults to /32 addresses. Addresses specifying a mask explicitly are not affected; to mitigate easily, add the desired mask (usually /128) to the addresses. Only auth proxy is affected; Okta, SAML, LDAP, etc are unaffected here.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Grafana OSS Auth Proxy contains an authentication bypass vulnerability affecting IPv6-configured networks, where incorrect address masking could allow unauthorized access to sensitive monitoring infrastructure. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the flaw enables attackers to circumvent IPv6 allow-list controls and potentially gain access to operational dashboards containing critical infrastructure insights. Leadership should prioritize remediation to prevent unauthorized visibility into enterprise monitoring systems.
