How to fix?

Upgrade apache-superset to version 2.1.2 or higher.

Overview

apache-superset is a modern, enterprise-ready business intelligence web application.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Authorization. An attacker can escalate privileges and tamper with authentication/authorization data by using a specially crafted CTE SQL statement.

Note:

This is only exploitable if the default "examples" database connection is used, which allows access to both the examples schema and the metadata database.
