NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream airflow-3 package and not the airflow-3 package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

lxml is a library for processing XML and HTML in the Python language. Prior to 6.1.0, using either of the two parsers in the default configuration (with resolve_entities=True) allows untrusted XML input to read local files. Setting the resolve_entities option explicitly to resolve_entities='internal' or resolve_entities=False disables the local file access. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.1.0.
