Current Description
We have released version 5.24.0 of the Grafana Operator. This patch includes a MEDIUM severity security fix for a path traversal/privilege escalation vulnerability in the Grafana Operator.
### Summary
The Grafana Operator supports loading dashboards & library panels using the jsonnet data templating language. The jsonnet expression is evaluated in the context of the operator manager pod.
### Impact
It is possible for a malicious user who can create Dashboard or LibraryPanel resources for a Grafana instance to obtain the Kubernetes service account token of the Grafana Operator manager.
### Affected versions
All Grafana Operator versions <= 5.23
### Solutions and mitigations
All installations should be upgraded as soon as possible.
As a workaround, the following ValidatingAdmissionPolicy prevent the creation or modification of jsonnet based resources:
apiVersion: admissionregistration.k8s.io/v1
kind: ValidatingAdmissionPolicy
metadata:
name: "prevent-jsonnet-dashboards"
spec:
failurePolicy: Fail
matchConstraints:
resourceRules:

apiVersions: ["v1beta1"]
operations: ["CREATE", "UPDATE"]
resources: ["grafanadashboards", "grafanalibrarypanels"]

Title: Grafana Operator de Grafana, Description: Hemos lanzado la versión 5.24.0 del Operador de Grafana. Este parche incluye una corrección de seguridad de severidad CRÍTICA para una vulnerabilidad de salto de ruta/escalada de privilegios en el Operador de Grafana.
### Resumen
El Operador de Grafana soporta la carga de paneles de control y paneles de biblioteca usando el lenguaje de plantillas de datos jsonnet. La expresión jsonnet es evaluada en el contexto del pod del gestor del operador.
### Impacto
Es posible que un usuario malicioso que pueda crear recursos de Dashboard o LibraryPanel para una instancia de Grafana obtenga el token de cuenta de servicio de Kubernetes del gestor del Operador de Grafana.
### Versiones afectadas
Todas las versiones del Operador de Grafana <= 5.23
### Soluciones y mitigaciones
Todas las instalaciones deberían ser actualizadas tan pronto como sea posible.
