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. Starting with the 7.0 branch, Grafana
had a stored XSS vulnerability in the trace view visualization. The stored XSS vulnerability was possible
due the value of a span's attributes/resources were not properly sanitized and this will be rendered when
the span's attributes/resources are expanded. An attacker needs to have the Editor role in order to change
the value of a trace view visualization to contain JavaScript. This means that vertical privilege
escalation is possible, where a user with Editor role can change to a known password for a user having
Admin role if the user with Admin role executes malicious JavaScript viewing a dashboard. Users may
upgrade to version 8.5.21, 9.2.13 and 9.3.8 to receive a fix. (CVE-2023-0594)
