Description

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

 - The SQL Expressions experimental feature of Grafana allows for the evaluation of `duckdb` queries
 containing user input. These queries are insufficiently sanitized before being passed to `duckdb`, leading
 to a command injection and local file inclusion vulnerability. Any user with the VIEWER or higher

 this attack to function; by default, this binary is not installed in Grafana distributions.
