• CVE-2025-30473: 0.95% estimated exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 61.37 (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-03). This is a model estimate, not proof of exploitation or customer exposure.

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in Apache Airflow Common SQL Provider. When using the partition clause in SQLTableCheckOperator as parameter (which was a recommended pattern), Authenticated UI User could inject arbitrary SQL command when triggering DAG exposing partitionclause to the user. This allowed the DAG Triggering user to escalate privileges to execute those arbitrary commands which they normally would not have. This issue affects Apache Airflow Common SQL Provider: before 1.24.1. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.24.1, which fixes the issue.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2025-30473

Advisory: Apache Airflow Common SQL Provider Vulnerable to SQL Injection
IDs: CVE-2025-30473, GHSA-5r62-mjf5-xwhj
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2025-30473 (revision 2, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 13:31 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: High (CVSS 8.8)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: apache-airflow-providers-common-sql 1.24.1. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- PyPI apache-airflow-providers-common-sql: affected < 1.24.1; fixed in 1.24.1

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `python -m pip show apache-airflow-providers-common-sql`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on apache-airflow-providers-common-sql.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
