Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Grafana web application. When a user logs into the system, either the username or email address can be used. However, the login system allows both a username and connected email to be registered, which could allow an attacker to prevent a user which has an associated email address access.

Description TEJ RATHI 2022-09-30 05:51:41 UTC 
CVE-2022-39229: Using email as a username can block other users from signing in 

Currently, a user’s username and email address are unique fields, that means no other user can have the same username or email address as another user. A user can have an email address as a username.

However, the login system allows users to log in with either username or email address. Since we allow a user to log in with either their username or email address, this creates an unusual behavior where user_1 can register with one email address and user_2 can register his username as user_1’s email address.

This prevents user_1 from logging into the application since user_1 password won’t match with users_2 email address.
This is a moderate severity security issue because it can stop a user from logging into the system.

Affected versions: Grafana <= 9.1.x
