High (7.5) in apache airflow. EPSS 1.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in apache-airflow 2.8.1, 2.8.1rc1.
Apache Airflow, versions before 2.8.1, have a vulnerability that allows a potential attacker to poison the XCom data by bypassing the protection of "enable_xcom_pickling=False" configuration setting resulting in poisoned data after XCom deserialization. This vulnerability is considered low since it requires a DAG author to exploit it. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.8.1 or later, which fixes this issue.
