A chained attack via SQL Expressions and a Grafana Enterprise plugin can lead to a remote arbitrary code execution impact (RCE). This is enabled by a feature in Grafana (OSS), so all users are always recommended to update to avoid future attack vectors going this path.
Only instances with the sqlExpressions feature toggle enabled are vulnerable.
Only instances in the following version ranges are affected:
- 11.6.0 (inclusive) to 11.6.14 (exclusive): 11.6.14 has the fix. 11.5 and below are not affected.
- 12.0.0 (inclusive) to 12.1.10 (exclusive): 12.1.10 has the fix. 12.0 did not receive an update, as it is end-of-life.
- 12.2.0 (inclusive) to 12.2.8 (exclusive): 12.2.8 has the fix.
- 12.3.0 (inclusive) to 12.3.6 (exclusive): 12.3.6 has the fix.
- 12.4.0 (inclusive) to 12.4.2 (exclusive): 12.4.2 has the fix. 13.0.0 and above also have the fix: no v13 release is affected.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →The attack chain requires the `sqlExpressions` feature toggle to be enabled in Grafana. Instances without this toggle are not vulnerable. ↗
- →Vulnerable Grafana version range: 11.6.0 up to (not including) 11.6.14. Monitor for exploitation attempts against these versions. ↗
- →Vulnerable Grafana version range: 12.0.0 up to (not including) 12.1.10. ↗
- →Vulnerable Grafana version range: 12.2.0 up to (not including) 12.2.8. ↗
- →Vulnerable Grafana version range: 12.3.0 up to (not including) 12.3.6. ↗
- →Vulnerable Grafana version range: 12.4.0 up to (not including) 12.4.2. ↗
- →The attack is a chained exploit: SQL Expressions feature (OSS) combined with a Grafana Enterprise plugin leads to RCE. Detection should focus on anomalous SQL Expression usage in conjunction with Enterprise plugin activity. ↗
- ·Only Grafana instances with the `sqlExpressions` feature toggle explicitly enabled are vulnerable to this CVE. Instances without this toggle are not affected regardless of version. ↗
- ·The RCE impact requires both the Grafana OSS sqlExpressions feature AND a Grafana Enterprise plugin to be present. OSS-only deployments without the Enterprise plugin may have a reduced attack surface. ↗
- ·Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, 9, and 10 packages of Grafana are listed as Not Affected. ↗
- ·Grafana 12.0 is end-of-life and did not receive a patch. Instances on 12.0.x remain permanently vulnerable if the sqlExpressions toggle is enabled. ↗

## ⚡ Weekly Recap: Axios Hack, Chrome 0-Day, Fortinet Exploits, Paragon Spyware and More
This week had real hits. The key software got tampered with. Active bugs showed up in the tools people use every day. Some attacks didn’t even need much effort because the path was already there.
One weak spot now spreads wider than before. What starts small can reach a lot of systems fast. New bugs, faster use, less time to react.
That’s this week. Read through it.
