Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-68970 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.1\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.1\n- apache-airflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.1\n- airflow (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.1\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-2026-68970/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68970/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-68970","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68970/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-68970","record":{"aliases":["BIT-airflow-2026-68970","CLEANSTART-2026-GP65571","CLEANSTART-2026-UV14417","ECHO-66ca-b82c-a1c7","GHSA-f3c2-j7g8-vpp8","MINI-66mh-p266-qw55","MINI-w69v-hjpp-9x8f","PYSEC-2026-3712"],"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 view unmasked secrets stored as list-shaped Variables in Apache Airflow task logs and rendered templates.","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-312","name":"Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information"}],"description":"Apache Airflow's Task SDK did not mask the contents of a Variable whose JSON value is a list, so secrets stored in that shape appeared in cleartext in task logs and in the Rendered Templates UI. Masking was applied only when the deserialized value was a string or a dict; a list at the top level matched neither and was returned unmasked. Any authenticated user able to read the logs or rendered templates of a task that references such a Variable could recover the values, with no special configuration required.
