Airflow UI Leak of Operator Kwargs in Tracebacks Fixed in 3.1.4 & 2.11.1
CVE-2025-65995 Published on February 21, 2026
Apache Airflow: Disclosure of secrets to UI via kwargs
When a DAG failed during parsing, Airflows error-reporting in the UI could include the full kwargs passed to the operators. If those kwargs contained sensitive values (such as secrets), they might be exposed in the UI tracebacks to authenticated users who had permission to view that DAG.
The issue has been fixed in Airflow 3.1.4 and 2.11.1, and users are strongly advised to upgrade to prevent potential disclosure of sensitive information.
