Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-62503 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.1.1\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.1.1\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.1.1\n- airflow (Bitnami): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.1.1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62503/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62503/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-62503","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62503/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-62503","record":{"aliases":["BIT-airflow-2025-62503","GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f","MINI-pc33-m97g-x9c8","PYSEC-2026-1133"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Airflow","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Users with create-only privileges can modify existing Pools, Connections, and Variables via bulk API overwrite actions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"airflow","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-250","name":"Execution with Unnecessary Privileges"}],"description":"User with CREATE and no UPDATE privilege for Pools, Connections, Variables could update existing records via bulk create API with overwrite action.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Apache Airflow: Privilege boundary bypass in bulk APIs (create action can upsert existing Pools/Connections/Variables)","id":"CVE-2025-62503","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":"apache:airflow","products":["apache:airflow"],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2025"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Envoy Lua filter use-after-free when oversized rewritten response body causes crash","id":"CVE-2025-62504"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["3.1.1"],"introduced":["3.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"airflow","purl":"pkg:bitnami/airflow","source":"BIT-airflow-2025-62503"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["3.1.1"],"introduced":["3.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"apache-airflow","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["3.1.1"],"introduced":["3.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"apache-airflow","purl":"pkg:pypi/apache-airflow","source":"GHSA-gp5f-cx7h-8q6f"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["3.1.1"],"introduced":["3.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"apache-airflow","purl":"pkg:pypi/apache-airflow","source":"PYSEC-2026-1133"}],"prev":{"headline":"SSH Hostkey Misconfiguration Vulnerability in Archer Devices","id":"CVE-2025-62501"},"products":["Apache Airflow"],"published":"2025-10-30","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Airflow's Experimental API Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2020-13927","kev_date_added":"2022-01-18","published":"2020-11-10"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Apache Airflow Command Injection","id":"CVE-2020-11978","kev_date_added":"2022-01-18","published":"2020-07-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Airflow: DAG author RCE on webserver via unrestricted import_string() in BaseSerialization.deserialize()","id":"CVE-2026-33264","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Airflow: Privilege escalation using airflow logs","id":"CVE-2023-25754","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Airflow, Apache Airflow MySQL Provider: Arbitrary file read via MySQL provider in Apache Airflow","id":"CVE-2023-22884","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Airflow Pinot provider allowed Command Injection","id":"CVE-2022-38649","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Airlfow Pig Provider RCE","id":"CVE-2022-40189","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-22"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-10-30","vendors":["Apache Software Foundation"]},"summary":"Users with create-only privileges can modify existing Pools, Connections, and Variables via bulk API overwrite actions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-62503/"}
