Which versions of Apache Airflow are affected by EUVD-2026-33592?

Apache Airflow 3.2.0 through 3.2.1 contains an API authorization flaw permitting authenticated users to modify data pipeline tasks across workflow boundaries they lack permission to access, enabling…. A patch is available.

How to fix or mitigate EUVD-2026-33592?

24 hours: Inventory all Apache Airflow 3.2.x deployments; review audit logs for cross-DAG TaskInstance modifications and unauthorized bulk API endpoint activity. 7 days: Deploy Apache Airflow 3.2.2 or later to all affected instances after staging validation; confirm successful upgrade and test DAG isolation enforcement. 30 days: Audit task-level authorization controls; verify no exploitation indicators remain in historical logs; document baseline for API bulk operation activity.

AnalysisAI

API authorization bypass in Apache Airflow 3.2.0 through versions before 3.2.2 allows authenticated users with access to one DAG to mutate TaskInstances belonging to other DAGs they should not control, via the bulk TaskInstances PUT/DELETE endpoints. The flaw stems from the bulk handler omitting per-DAG authorization checks, enabling cross-DAG state tampering with high integrity impact (CVSS 7.5, vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/I:H). No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS probability is low at 0.01%.

Technical ContextAI

Apache Airflow is a Python-based workflow orchestration platform whose REST API exposes bulk TaskInstance update/delete endpoints under the FastAPI core_api service (airflow-core/src/airflow/api_fastapi/core_api/services/public/task_instances.py). The vulnerability is a CWE-639 Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key: the bulk handler iterates entities supplied in the request body and dispatches PUT/DELETE operations without invoking the auth manager's is_authorized_dag() check for each target dag_id. The upstream fix (PR #64288) introduces a dag_authorization_cache and calls get_auth_manager().is_authorized_dag(method=..., access_entity=DagAccessEntity.TASK_INSTANCE, details=DagDetails(id=dag_id, team_name=...)) per DAG, returning HTTP 403 for unauthorized DAGs while still processing authorized ones.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to Apache Airflow 3.2.2 or later, which incorporates the per-DAG authorization check from PR https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/64288. Until upgrade is possible, restrict access to the bulk TaskInstance API endpoints (PUT/DELETE on /api/v2/...//taskInstances bulk routes) at the reverse-proxy or ingress layer to only trusted operator accounts - note this will break legitimate multi-team automations that rely on bulk operations. As an additional compensating control, audit Airflow API logs for bulk task_instance mutations referencing dag_ids the requesting user does not own, and consider temporarily disabling the simple auth manager in favor of an auth manager that scopes API tokens to specific DAG sets.
