Echo: apache-airflow: security update to 3.3.0

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 460462

Description

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

 - The Config API in Apache Airflow surfaced per-key secrets-backend overrides (environment variables like
 `AIRFLOW__SECRETS__BACKEND_KWARG__SECRET_ID` and `AIRFLOW__WORKERS__SECRETS_BACKEND_KWARG__SECRET_ID`) as
 synthetic config options whose option names were not in `sensitive_config_values`, so the masker did not
 redact them. An authenticated UI/API user with Config read permission could retrieve plaintext secrets-
 backend credentials (Vault `role_id` / `secret_id`, etc.) from the Config API output. Affects deployments
 that configure secrets backends via per-key environment overrides. Users are advised to upgrade to
 `apache-airflow` 3.3.0 or later. (CVE-2026-48892)

Solution

Update the apache-airflow library and its related packages to version 3.3.0 or later.
