✅ Remediation

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 Workaround: To mitigate this issue, restrict network access to the Grafana instance to trusted internal networks or localhost. If a reverse proxy or load balancer is deployed in front of Grafana, configure it to implement rate limiting on requests to the OAuth login endpoint to prevent an attacker from exhausting system resources. If OAuth is not required, consider disabling it in the Grafana configuration, though this may impact user authentication workflows. Workaround: Deploy a reverse proxy or API gateway (e.g., Nginx) in front of Grafana configured to strictly limit the maximum HTTP request body size, dropping oversized payloads before they reach the backend. As a defense-in-depth measure, restrict network access to trusted internal clients via firewall rules. Note: Applying these proxy and network changes may require a service reload, causing a temporary interruption.
