Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Grafana ClickHouse plugin. When using the Native protocol with PDC or secure SOCKS, the connection library fails to enforce Transport Layer Security (TLS), causing sensitive data such as usernames, passwords, queries, and results to be transmitted in cleartext. This allows a network attacker to intercept and read this information. Additionally, the server certificate is not validated, and client certificates are not sent, further compromising the security of the connection.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-27 16:57:02 UTC
When the ClickHouse plugin uses Native protocol (the default) with PDC or secure SOCKS, it asks for TLS but the connection library ignores that and talks to ClickHouse in the clear. Username, password, queries, and results can be read on the hop after the proxy. The server certificate is never checked, and a configured client certificate is not sent.
