Apache Airflow Google Provider
Monthly
Man-in-the-middle exposure in Apache Airflow's `apache-airflow-providers-google` package (versions prior to 22.0.0) stems from the `ComputeEngineSSHHook` shipping with `paramiko.AutoAddPolicy` as its default missing-host-key policy, silently trusting any SSH host key presented by a Compute Engine VM. An in-path network attacker positioned between the Airflow worker and the GCE instance can intercept or tamper with the SSH session, exposing credentials, DAG-driven commands, and transferred data. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.02%), but technical impact is rated total by SSVC.
