Grafana · Grafana · CVE-2023-6152
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Grafana (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
The issue is related to a weakness in the authentication mechanism of Grafana, specifically with the `verify email enabled` option. This option only validates email addresses during the sign-up process, allowing a user to change their email address without verification in their profile settings. An attacker can exploit this to bypass email verification and potentially prevent the legitimate owner of an email address from signing up. Additionally, a user can set their username to an email address that is different from their actual email address, which can also be used to prevent the legitimate owner of that email address from signing up.
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
