Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-48828 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.0\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.0\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.0\n- airflow (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.0\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-2026-48828/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-48828/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-48828","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-48828/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-48828","record":{"aliases":["BIT-airflow-2026-48828","CLEANSTART-2026-TQ39648","ECHO-2431-3a02-f2b2","GHSA-563f-2439-rmq4","MINI-8rgj-f3pj-fpc6","MINI-jc59-xvr5-wj92","PYSEC-2026-3806"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Airflow","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can retrieve plaintext secrets from JSON variables due to missing key-based redaction checks in the Bulk Variables API.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"airflow","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"The Bulk Variables API in Apache Airflow called the redactor without passing the variable's key, so the key-based `should_hide_value_for_key` check (which triggers on secret-suffixed key names like `*_password` / `*_token` / `*_secret`) could not fire for JSON-decodable variable values.
