Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File

CVE-2025-68675

Severity High
Score 7.5/10

Summary

In Apache Airflow versions prior to 3.1.6, the proxies and proxy fields within a Connection may include proxy URLs containing embedded authentication information. These fields were not treated as sensitive by default and therefore were not automatically masked in log output. As a result, when such connections are rendered or printed to logs, proxy credentials embedded in these fields could be exposed. This issue also affects apache-airflow-providers-common-compat versions through 1.10.1 and apache-airflow-providers-microsoft-azure versions through 12.10.0. Users are recommended to upgrade to 3.1.6 or later, which fixes this issue.

CWE-532 - Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File

It's quite common for applications to save logs. For example, whenever a user requests a resource from a particular website, the web server writes information about the request to a log file. These files are helpful for identifying abnormal system activity, bugs, and evaluating the security controls of the application. Security of log files is critical for the overall security of the application and its confidential resources. An application that lacks appropriate logging levels can expose sensitive user data and system information stored on the log files to malicious users. This info can be exploited to compromise your system.
