Description

Grafana Labs reports: When a user adds a Graphite data source, they can then use the data source in a dashboard. This capability contains a feature to use Functions. Once a function is selected, a small tooltip appears when hovering over the name of the function. This tooltip allows you to delete the selected Function from your query or show the Function Description. However, no sanitization is done when adding this description to the DOM. Since it is not uncommon to connect to public data sources, an attacker could host a Graphite instance with modified Function Descriptions containing XSS payloads. When the victim uses it in a query and accidentally hovers over the Function Description, an attacker-controlled XSS payload will be executed. The severity of this vulnerability is of CVSSv3.1 5.7 Medium (CVSS: AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N (5.7)).
