    Apache Airflow CNCF Kubernetes provider: JWT Token Exposure in KubernetesExecutor Command-Line Arguments

    CVE-2026-27173 · GHSA-524w-vq63-2xhf

    Affected
    • PyPI apache-airflow-providers-cncf-kubernetes < 10.17.0
    Fixed in
    10.17.0· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    JWT tokens that were used by workers in Kubernetes Executors have been exposed to users who had read only access to Kuberentes Pods. This could allow users with just read-only access to perform actions that were only available to running tasks via Task SDK and potentially allow to modify state of Airflow Database for tasks.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 10.17.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.

    Apache Airflow CNCF Kubernetes provider, Apache Airflow: Kubernetes configuration file saved without encryption in the Metadata and logged as plain text in the Triggerer service

    CVE-2023-51702 · GHSA-mg2x-mggj-6955

    Affected
    • PyPI apache-airflow-providers-cncf-kubernetes >= 5.2.0, < 7.0.0
    Fixed in
    7.0.0· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Since version 5.2.0, when using deferrable mode with the path of a Kubernetes configuration file for authentication, the Airflow worker serializes this configuration file as a dictionary and sends it to the triggerer by storing it in metadata without any encryption. Additionally, if used with an Airflow version between 2.3.0 and 2.6.0, the configuration dictionary will be logged as plain text in the triggerer service without masking. This allows anyone with access to the metadata or triggerer log to obtain the configuration file and use it to access the Kubernetes cluster. This behavior was changed in version 7.0.0, which stopped serializing the file contents and started providing the file path instead to read the contents into the trigger. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 7.0.0, which fixes this issue.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 7.0.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.

    Apache Airflow CNCF Kubernetes Provider: KubernetesPodOperator RCE via connection configuration

    CVE-2023-33234 · GHSA-2rx4-9f5h-9gjf

    Affected
    • PyPI apache-airflow-providers-cncf-kubernetes >= 5.0.0, < 7.0.0
    Fixed in
    7.0.0· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Arbitrary code execution in Apache Airflow CNCF Kubernetes provider version 5.0.0 allows user to change xcom sidecar image and resources via Airflow connection. In order to exploit this weakness, a user would already need elevated permissions (Op or Admin) to change the connection object in this manner. Operators should upgrade to provider version 7.0.0 which has removed the vulnerability.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 7.0.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
