Grafana Enterprise SCIM Provisioning Privilege Escalation (CVE-2025-41115)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 276746

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

SCIM provisioning was introduced in Grafana Enterprise and Grafana Cloud in April to improve how organizations manage users and teams in Grafana by introducing automated user lifecycle management. In Grafana versions 12.x where SCIM provisioning is enabled and configured, a vulnerability in user identity handling allows a malicious or compromised SCIM client to provision a user with a numeric externalId, which in turn could allow to override internal user IDs and lead to impersonation or privilege escalation. This vulnerability applies only if all of the following conditions are met: - `enableSCIM` feature flag set to true - `user_sync_enabled` config option in the `[auth.scim]` block set to true.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Grafana Enterprise version 12.0.6, 12.1.3, 12.2.1, 12.3.0 or later.
