CVE-2023-46288: Apache Airflow: Sensitive parameters exposed in API when "non-sensitive-only" configuration is set

[Jarek Potiuk <potiuk () apache org>]

Severity: low

Affected versions:

- Apache Airflow 2.4.0 before 2.7.0

Description:

Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor vulnerability in Apache Airflow.This issue affects Apache 
Airflow from 2.4.0 to 2.7.0.

Sensitive configuration information has been exposed to authenticated users with the ability to read configuration via 
Airflow REST API for configuration even when the expose_config option is set to non-sensitive-only. The expose_config 
option is False by default. It is recommended to upgrade to a version that is not affected if you set expose_config to 
non-sensitive-only configuration. This is a different error than CVE-2023-45348 which allows authenticated user to 
retrieve individual configuration values in 2.7.* by specially crafting their request (solved in 2.7.2).

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.7.2, which fixes the issue and additionally fixes CVE-2023-45348.
