Description
The Event Log detail endpoint `GET /api/v2/eventLogs/{event_log_id}` in Apache Airflow fetched audit-log rows directly by numeric ID after only the generic Audit Log permission check, while the collection endpoint `GET /api/v2/eventLogs` applied per-Dag scoping. An authenticated UI/API user with audit-log read permission for one Dag could retrieve audit-log entries for any other Dag by guessing or enumerating the numeric event log ID. Affects deployments that rely on per-Dag audit-log scoping. Users are advised to upgrade to `apache-airflow` 3.2.2 or later.

Impact

The Event Log detail endpoint GET /api/v2/eventLogs/{event_log_id} in Apache Airflow returns audit‑log rows directly by numeric ID after only the generic audit‑log permission check. Because the collection endpoint enforces per‑DAG scoping, an authenticated user with generic audit‑log read permission can guess or enumerate numeric IDs and retrieve audit log entries for any other DAG, disclosing sensitive information about the DAG’s execution and configuration. This weakness qualifies as an authorization bypass (CWE‑639) and results in a confidential data disclosure vulnerability.

Affected Systems

Deployments of the Apache Software Foundation’s Apache Airflow that rely on per‑DAG audit‑log scoping are impacted. The security fix is available in Apache Airflow 3.2.2 and later; systems running older versions are susceptible.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 4.3, and the EPSS score is <1%, indicating a very low but nonzero exploitation probability. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV. Based on the description, it is inferred that the attack requires only authenticated access and the ability to guess or enumerate numeric event log IDs, conditions that are commonly present in Airflow accounts. The consequence is that any user with audit‑log read permission can access unintended logs, which may expose private data or system state. Because the exploit does not require elevated privileges beyond a normal user account, the risk is significant for environments that expose the Airflow UI or API to untrusted users. Prompt remediation is recommended.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Apache Airflow to version 3.2.2 or newer.
  • Verify that the per‑DAG audit‑log scoping enforcement is active on the API detail endpoint by testing access with a user that has read permission for one DAG but not another.
  • Review and tighten access controls so that generic audit‑log read permission cannot be granted to users who should not be able to enumerate or access logs from all DAGs.
