Discussion

Apache Airflow CVE-2018-20244 HTML Injection Vulnerability

Apache Airflow is prone to a HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input.

Successful exploits will allow attacker-supplied HTML and script code to run in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or control how the site is rendered to the user. Other attacks are also possible.

Apache Airflow version 1.10.1 and prior are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
