Echo: apache-airflow: security update to 3.2.2

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 463140

Description

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

 - Apache Airflow's `JWTRefreshMiddleware` set the JWT auth cookie without the `Secure` flag, so deployments
 running the Airflow API server behind an HTTPS-terminating reverse proxy (e.g. nginx / Envoy / a managed
 load balancer that terminates TLS and forwards plaintext to the API server, the default cloud-native
 topology) would have the user's session JWT replayed over any cleartext HTTP request to the same host. A
 network-positioned attacker (Wi-Fi MITM, hostile LAN, captive-portal proxy) could induce a logged-in
 user's browser to issue an HTTP request to the deployment's hostname and capture the JWT cookie out of
 that request, then replay it against the authenticated API. Affects deployments where the Airflow API
 server is reached through a TLS-terminating proxy and the cookie's secure-by-default protection is load-
 bearing for session integrity. Users are advised to upgrade to `apache-airflow` 3.2.2 or later.
 (CVE-2026-41017)

Solution

Update the apache-airflow library and its related packages to version 3.2.2 or later.
