- A user with read access to Grafana's server logs, or to a log store they are shipped to, can recover the
OAuth and OIDC access, refresh and ID tokens of users who sign in through the Generic OAuth, Google or
GitLab providers. Grafana writes these tokens to its logs unredacted when an access or ID token is not a
valid JWT, when the ID token is missing (at debug level) or is not a string (exposure of sensitive
information in log files). The exposure is bounded by the scopes granted to the configured OAuth client.
(CVE-2026-79656)
Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
