Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

CVE-2022-39307

Medium
5.3/10

Summary

Grafana is an open-source platform for monitoring and observability. In versions prior to 8.5.15 and 9.x prior to 9.2.4, when using the forget password on the login page, a POST request is made to the "/api/user/password/sent-reset-email" URL. When the username or email does not exist, a JSON response contains a “user not found” message. This leaks information to unauthenticated users and introduces a security risk. There are no known workarounds.
