SCA: security update for apache-airflow (GHSA-8r55-rv5w-6pfm)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 438011

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Airflow versions before 2.11.1 have a vulnerability that allows authenticated users with audit log access
 to see sensitive values in audit logs which they should not see. When sensitive connection parameters were
 set via airflow CLI, values of those variables appeared in the audit log and were stored unencrypted in
 the Airflow database. While this risk is limited to users with audit log access, it is recommended to
 upgrade to Airflow 2.11.1 or a later version, which addresses this issue. Users who previously used the
 CLI to set connections should manually delete entries with those connection sensitive values from the log
 table. This is similar but not the same issue as CVE-2024-50378 (CVE-2025-27555)
