How to fix?

Upgrade apache-airflow to version 2.0.1rc1 or higher.

Overview

apache-airflow is a platform to programmatically author, schedule, and monitor workflows.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authentication. The lineage endpoint of the deprecated Experimental API was not protected by authentication. This allowed unauthenticated users to hit that endpoint.This is low-severity issue as the attacker needs to be aware of certain parameters to pass to that endpoint and even after can just get some metadata about a DAG and a Task.
