CVE-2021-26697

Apache Airflow: Lineage API endpoint for Experimental API missed authentication check

Published Feb 17, 2021 CVSS 3.1 · 5.3 Medium EPSS 4.6% KEV · Not listed
Description
The lineage endpoint of the deprecated Experimental API was not protected by authentication in Airflow 2.0.0. This allowed unauthenticated users to hit that endpoint. This is low-severity issue as the attacker needs to be aware of certain parameters to pass to that endpoint and even after can just get some metadata about a DAG and a Task. This issue affects Apache Airflow 2.0.0.
