CVE-2020-17515: Apache Airflow cross-site scripting due to incomplete fix for CVE-2020-13944

April 20, 2021 (updated September 11, 2024)

The origin parameter passed to some of the endpoints like /trigger was vulnerable to XSS exploit. This issue affects Apache Airflow versions prior to 1.10.15. This is same as CVE-2020-13944 but the implemented fix in Airflow 1.10.13 did not fix the issue completely.
