CVE-2026-33381
Description
A flaw was found in Grafana. When a user's access to mint tokens for a service account is revoked, the system may temporarily allow the user to continue minting tokens for a few seconds. This could lead to a temporary bypass of access control, potentially enabling unauthorized actions if the tokens are used before the revocation fully propagates.
Mitigation
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Access Control,Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Gain Privileges or Assume Identity; Read Application Data; Read Files or Directories
An attacker may be able to access resources with the elevated privilege that could not be accessed with the attacker's original privileges. This is particularly likely in conjunction with another flaw, such as a buffer overflow.
