CVSS 3.1
7.2 highCVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:NCVE-2026-40961
High (7.2) in apache airflow. EPSS 0.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in apache-airflow 3.2.2.
A bug in the login redirect route in Apache Airflow allowed authenticated users to craft URLs that bypassed the `is_safe_url` check, enabling redirection from a trusted Airflow domain to an attacker-controlled origin. Users are advised to upgrade to `apache-airflow` 3.2.2 or later. As a defense-in-depth mitigation, deployment operators can place Airflow behind a reverse proxy that strips off-domain `next=` query parameters before they reach the login endpoint.
