Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insertion of Sensitive Information into Externally-Accessible File or Directory in the KubernetesExecutor process. An attacker can gain unauthorized access to sensitive API endpoints by harvesting JWT tokens from command-line arguments exposed in pod specifications. This allows the attacker to perform actions such as triggering DAG runs, clearing runs, and reading or modifying Variables, Connections, or XComs by leveraging Kubernetes read-only access to retrieve the JWT from pod metadata.
