CVE-2025-62402: Apache Airflow: Airflow 3 API: /api/v2/dagReports executes DAG Python in API

MediumCVSS 5.4 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)

  • 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: 0.52% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
  • Fixed version: Apache Software Foundation Apache Airflow 3.1.1.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Apache Software Foundation Apache Airflow 3.1.1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

API users via `/api/v2/dagReports` could perform Dag code execution in the context of the api-server if the api-server was deployed in the environment where Dag files were available.
