CVE-2026-24098: Apache Airflow: Assigning single DAG permission leaked all DAGs Import Errors

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)

  • 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: 0.77% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 56% of all records.
  • 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.
  • Fixed version: Apache Software Foundation Apache Airflow 3.1.7.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Apache Software Foundation Apache Airflow 3.1.7 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Apache Airflow versions 3.0.0 - 3.1.7, has vulnerability that allows authenticated UI users with permission to one or more specific Dags to view import errors generated by other Dags they did not have access to. Users are advised to upgrade to 3.1.7 or later, which resolves this issue

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

No history yet (it accumulates with the daily EPSS job).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.
