CVE-2026-33916: 
Grafana vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Handlebars provides the power necessary to let users build semantic templates. In versions 4.0.0 through 4.7.8, resolvePartial() in the Handlebars runtime resolves partial names via a plain property lookup on options.partials without guarding against prototype-chain traversal. When Object.prototype has been polluted with a string value whose key matches a partial reference in a template, the polluted string is used as the partial body and rendered without HTML escaping, resulting in reflected or stored XSS. Version 4.7.9 fixes the issue. Some workarounds are available. Apply Object.freeze(Object.prototype) early in application startup to prevent prototype pollution. Note: this may break other libraries, and/or use the Handlebars runtime-only build (handlebars/runtime), which does not compile templates and reduces the attack surface.
