Apache Airflow <=1.10.10 - Remote Code Execution

id: CVE-2020-11978

info:
  name: Apache Airflow <=1.10.10 - Remote Code Execution
  author: pdteam
  severity: high
  description: Apache Airflow versions 1.10.10 and below are vulnerable to remote code/command injection vulnerabilities in one of the example DAGs shipped with Airflow. This could allow any authenticated user to run arbitrary commands as the user running airflow worker/scheduler (depending on the executor in use).
  impact: |
    Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected system.
  remediation: If you already have examples disabled by setting load_examples=False in the config then you are not vulnerable.
