CVE-2025-68675
As a result, when such connections are rendered or printed to logs, proxy credentials embedded in these fields could be exposed.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.01%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
In Apache Airflow versions before 3.1.6, and 2.11.1 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. Users are recommended to upgrade to 3.1.6 or later for Airflow 3, and 2.11.1 or later for Airflow 2 which fixes this issue
