CVE-2026-111454 · Severity: info · Published 2026-11-09

Apache Airflow is a workflow orchestration platform. Its asset API endpoints disclosed the internal IDs of workflows (DAGs) associated with assets without verifying whether the requesting user had permission to view those workflows. An authenticated user with basic asset read permissions could discover workflow IDs they should not be able to access, potentially revealing internal infrastructure and operational details.

## How to fix

- Fixed in apache-airflow 3.4.0

## Technical details

The asset API endpoints (GET /api/v2/assets, GET /api/v2/assets/{asset_id}, and the UI GET /ui/assets) returned nested references to scheduled DAGs, producing tasks, and consuming tasks without filtering them against the user's readable DAGs. An authenticated user with asset read access could enumerate workflow IDs they lacked direct read permissions for by examining the asset API responses. The fix applies the existing ReadableDagsFilterDep filter to narrow these nested references to only those DAGs the user can read.

## Affected products

- Apache Airflow before 3.4.0
