Descriptions

Apache Airflow, versions 2.6.0 through 2.7.3 has a stored XSS vulnerability that allows a DAG author to add an unbounded and not-sanitized javascript in the parameter description field of the DAG. This Javascript can be executed on the client side of any of the user who looks at the tasks in the browser sandbox. While this issue does not allow to exit the browser sandbox or manipulation of the server-side data - more than the DAG author already has, it allows to modify what the user looking at the DAG details sees in the browser - which opens up all kinds of possibilities of misleading other users.

Users of Apache Airflow are recommended to upgrade to version 2.8.0 or newer to mitigate the risk associated with this vulnerability

Apache Airflow, desde versiones 2.6.0 a 2.7.3, tiene una vulnerabilidad de XSS almacenado que permite a un autor de DAG agregar un javascript ilimitado y no sanitizado en el campo de descripción de parámetros del DAG. Este Javascript se puede ejecutar en el lado del cliente de cualquiera de los usuarios que mira las tareas en la sandbox del navegador. Si bien este problema no permite salir de la sandbox del navegador ni manipular los datos del lado del servidor (más de los que el autor del DAG ya tiene, permite modificar lo que el usuario que mira los detalles del DAG ve en el navegador), lo que abre todo tipo de problemas de posibilidades de engañar a otros usuarios. Se recomienda a los usuarios de Apache Airflow actualizar a la versión 2.8.0 o posterior para mitigar el riesgo asociado con esta vulnerabilidad.
