Authentication bypass via overbroad IPv6 allow-list defaults
Published May 13, 2026 · Updated May 13, 2026
Authentication bypass in Grafana OSS 9.4.0 through 13.0.1 allows remote attackers to spoof Auth Proxy identities from overbroad IPv6 ranges. The Auth Proxy IPv6 allow-list handling assigns an address without an explicit prefix length a /32 network instead of a host-sized /128, trusting unintended source addresses. Exploitation requires Auth Proxy to be enabled with an unmasked IPv6 whitelist entry; other authentication providers are unaffected, and successful requests obtain the spoofed identity's access.
