How to fix?

Upgrade apache-airflow to version 2.9.0 or higher.

Overview

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

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure via the configuration UI page. An attacker can see sensitive provider configuration by setting webserver.expose_config to non-sensitive-only, even though the celery provider is the only community provider currently that has sensitive configurations.

Note:

This is only exploitable if webserver.expose_config configuration is set to non-sensitive-only.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by changing the expose_config configuration to False.
