A crafted plugin archive can chain relative symbolic link\nentries to escape the plugin installation directory, writing arbitrary files and an\nexecutable backend binary outside that directory. The dropped executable runs with the\nprivileges of the Grafana server process, resulting in remote code execution.\n\nPlugin archives are extracted before their signature is verified, so a valid plugin\nsignature does not prevent the write. An operator can therefore be affected by\ninstalling a plugin that appears legitimate, as well as by installing a plugin from an\narbitrary archive using grafana-cli, the GF_INSTALL_PLUGINS environment variable, or\npreinstall configuration.\n\nGrafana Enterprise is affected because it includes the same plugin extraction code as\nGrafana OSS.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":8.8},"cwes":["CWE-22","CWE-59","CWE-94"],"references":["https://grafana.com/security/security-advisories/cve-2026-15815"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:55:23.253742848+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-15815","score":0.00685,"percentile":0.52636,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
