Vulnerabilidades

Secrets in Variables saved as JSON dictionaries were not properly redacted - in case thee variables were retrieved by the user the secrets stored as nested fields were not masked. If you do not store variables with sensitive values in JSON form, you are not affected. Otherwise please upgrade to Apache Airflow 3.2.0…

UI / API User with asset materialize permission could trigger dags they had no access to. Users are advised to migrate to Airflow version 3.2.0 that fixes the issue.

In case of SQL errors, exception/stack trace of errors was exposed in API even if "api/expose_stack_traces" was set to false. That could lead to exposing additional information to potential attacker. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Airflow 3.2.0, which fixes the issue.

An example of BashOperator in Airflow documentation suggested a way of passing dag_run.conf in the way that could cause unsanitized user input to be used to escalate privileges of UI user to allow execute code on worker. Users should review if any of their own DAGs have adopted this incorrect advice.

Dag Authors, who normally should not be able to execute code in the webserver context could craft XCom payload causing the webserver to execute arbitrary code. Since Dag Authors are already highly trusted, severity of this issue is Low. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Airflow 3.2.0, which fixes the issue.

JWT Tokens used by tasks were exposed in logs. This could allow UI users to act as Dag Authors. Users are advised to upgrade to Airflow version that contains fix. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.2.0, which fixes this issue.

The `access_key` and `connection_string` connection properties were not marked as sensitive names in secrets masker. This means that user with read permission could see the values in Connection UI, as well as when Connection was accidentaly logged to logs, those values could be seen in the logs. Azure Service Bus used…

The example example_xcom that was included in airflow documentation implemented unsafe pattern of reading value from xcom in the way that could be exploited to allow UI user who had access to modify XComs to perform arbitrary execution of code on the worker. Since the UI users are already highly trusted, this is a Low…

Dag Authors, who normally should not be able to execute code in the webserver context could craft XCom payload causing the webserver to execute arbitrary code. Since Dag Authors are already highly trusted, severity of this issue is Low. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Airflow 3.2.0, which resolves this…

Before Airflow 3.2.0, it was unclear that secure Airflow deployments require the Deployment Manager to take appropriate actions and pay attention to security details and security model of Airflow. Some assumptions the Deployment Manager could make were not clear or explicit enough, even though Airflow's intentions and…

Apache Airflow versions 3.0.0 through 3.1.8 DagRun wait endpoint returns XCom result values even to users who only have DAG Run read permissions, such as the Viewer role.This behavior conflicts with the FAB RBAC model, which treats XCom as a separate protected resource, and with the security model documentation that…

When user logged out, the JWT token the user had authtenticated with was not invalidated, which could lead to reuse of that token in case it was intercepted. In Airflow 3.2 we implemented the mechanism that implements token invalidation at logout. Users who are concerned about the logout scenario and possibility of…

Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in Apache Airflow Provider for Databricks. Provider code did not validate certificates for connections to Databricks back-end which could result in a man-of-a-middle attack that traffic is intercepted and manipulated or credentials exfiltrated w/o notice. This issue…

Apache Airflow versions 3.1.0 through 3.1.7 missing authorization vulnerability in the Execution API's Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) endpoints that allows any authenticated task instance to read, approve, or reject HITL workflows belonging to any other task instance. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Airflow 3.1.8…

Apache Airflow versions 3.1.0 through 3.1.7 session token (_token) in cookies is set to path=/ regardless of the configured [webserver] base_url or [api] base_url. This allows any application co-hosted under the same domain to capture valid Airflow session tokens from HTTP request headers, allowing full session…

Apache Airflow versions 3.1.0 through 3.1.7 /ui/dependencies endpoint returns the full DAG dependency graph without filtering by authorized DAG IDs. This allows an authenticated user with only DAG Dependencies permission to enumerate DAGs they are not authorized to view. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache…

Apache Airflow versions 3.0.0 through 3.1.7 FastAPI DagVersion listing API does not apply per-DAG authorization filtering when the request is made with dag_id set to "~" (wildcard for all DAGs). As a result, version metadata of DAGs that the requester is not authorized to access is returned. Users are recommended to…

In AWS Auth manager, the origin of the SAML authentication has been used as provided by the client and not verified against the actual instance URL. This allowed to gain access to different instances with potentially different access controls by reusing SAML response from other instances. You should upgrade to 9.22.0…

A user with access to the DB could craft a database entry that would result in executing code on Triggerer - which gives anyone who have access to DB the same permissions as Dag Author. Since direct DB access is not usual and recommended for Airflow, the likelihood of it making any damage is low. You should upgrade to…

Airflow versions before 2.11.1 have a vulnerability that allows authenticated users with audit log access to see sensitive values in audit logs which they should not see. When sensitive connection parameters were set via airflow CLI, values of those variables appeared in the audit log and were stored unencrypted in…

DAG Author (who already has quite a lot of permissions) could manipulate database of Airflow 2 in the way to execute arbitrary code in the web-server context, which they should normally not be able to do, leading to potentially remote code execution in the context of web-server (server-side) as a result of a user…

When a DAG failed during parsing, Airflow’s error-reporting in the UI could include the full kwargs passed to the operators. If those kwargs contained sensitive values (such as secrets), they might be exposed in the UI tracebacks to authenticated users who had permission to view that DAG. The issue has been fixed in…

Apache Airflow versions 3.0.0 - 3.1.7, has vulnerability that allows authenticated UI users with permission to one or more specific Dags to view import errors generated by other Dags they did not have access to. Users are advised to upgrade to 3.1.7 or later, which resolves this issue

Apache Airflow versions 3.1.0 through 3.1.6 contain an authorization flaw that can allow an authenticated user with custom permissions limited to task access to view task logs without having task log access. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Airflow 3.1.7 or later, which resolves this issue.

In Apache Airflow versions before 3.1.6, and 2.11.1 the proxies and proxy fields within a Connection may include proxy URLs containing embedded authentication information. These fields were not treated as sensitive by default and therefore were not automatically masked in log output. As a result, when such connections…
