CVE-2026-41014: CWE-862: Missing Authorization in Apache Software Foundation Apache Airflow
CVE-2026-41014 is a medium severity vulnerability in Apache Airflow 3.2.0 where the partitioned_dag_runs endpoints enforce only asset-level access control but not per-DAG authorization. This allows authenticated users with global Asset:read permission to enumerate partition run state, schedule configuration, and asset wiring for DAGs they are not authorized to access. The issue affects deployments relying on per-DAG read scoping combined with broader asset access. Users are advised to upgrade to Apache Airflow 3.2.2 or later.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The vulnerability CVE-2026-41014 in Apache Airflow 3.2.0 involves missing authorization checks at the per-DAG level in the partitioned_dag_runs UI/API endpoints. While asset-level access control is enforced, the lack of per-DAG authorization allows authenticated users with global Asset:read permission to access information about DAG runs they should not see. This could lead to unauthorized information disclosure about DAG states and configurations. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-862 (Missing Authorization).
Potential Impact
An authenticated user with global Asset:read permission can enumerate sensitive information about DAG runs, including partition run state, schedule configuration, and asset wiring for DAGs they are not authorized to read. This results in unauthorized information disclosure but does not affect integrity or availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
Users should upgrade Apache Airflow to version 3.2.2 or later, where this authorization issue has been addressed. No other mitigation or temporary workaround is indicated. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed in the vendor advisory data, but the recommendation to upgrade to 3.2.2 or later implies an official fix is available in those versions.
