Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 22/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.32% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: Apache Software Foundation Apache Airflow 2.9.2.
- Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).
Low priority for now. Upgrade to Apache Software Foundation Apache Airflow 2.9.2 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Use of Web Browser Cache Containing Sensitive Information vulnerability in Apache Airflow. Airflow did not return "Cache-Control" header for dynamic content, which in case of some browsers could result in potentially storing sensitive data in local cache of the browser. This issue affects Apache Airflow: before 2.9.2. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.9.2, which fixes the issue.
