Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Grafana Enterprise up to 13.2.0. It has been rated as critical. This issue affects an unknown functionality of the component SAML Library. The manipulation of the argument InResponseTo with an unknown input leads to a authentication replay vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-294. A capture-replay flaw exists when the design of the product makes it possible for a malicious user to sniff network traffic and bypass authentication by replaying it to the server in question to the same effect as the original message (or with minor changes). Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

When SAML IdP-initiated login is enabled in Grafana Enterprise, the SAML library skips validation of the InResponseTo field on all SAML responses, including SP-initiated logins. This removes anti-replay protection, allowing an attacker who obtains a valid signed SAML assertion to replay it and gain a session as the victim user. Only instances with the allow_idp_initiated SAML setting enabled are affected; this setting is off by default and Grafana OSS is not affected.

It is possible to read the advisory at grafana.com. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2026-12704 since 06/19/2026. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Technical details of the vulnerability are known, but there is no available exploit.
