SCA: security update for github.com/grafana/grafana (GHSA-p978-56hq-r492)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 417416

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Grafana is an open-source platform for monitoring and observability. In versions prior to 8.5.13, 9.0.9,
 and 9.1.6, Grafana is subject to Improper Preservation of Permissions resulting in privilege escalation on
 some folders where Admin is the only used permission. The vulnerability impacts Grafana instances where
 RBAC was disabled and enabled afterwards, as the migrations which are translating legacy folder
 permissions to RBAC permissions do not account for the scenario where the only user permission in the
 folder is Admin, as a result RBAC adds permissions for Editors and Viewers which allow them to edit and
 view folders accordingly. This issue has been patched in versions 8.5.13, 9.0.9, and 9.1.6. A workaround
 when the impacted folder/dashboard is known is to remove the additional permissions manually.
 (CVE-2022-36062)
