CVE-2024-31869: Apache Airflow: Sensitive configuration for providers displayed when "non-sensitive-only" config used

[Ephraim Anierobi <ephraimanierobi () apache org>]

Severity: low

Affected versions:

- Apache Airflow 2.7.0 through 2.8.4

Description:

Airflow versions 2.7.0 through 2.8.4 have a vulnerability that allows an authenticated user to see sensitive provider 
configuration via the "configuration" UI page when "non-sensitive-only" was set as "webserver.expose_config" 
configuration (The celery provider is the only community provider currently that has sensitive configurations). You 
should migrate to Airflow 2.9 or change your "expose_config" configuration to False as a workaround. This is similar, 
but different to  CVE-2023-46288 https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-9qqg-mh7c-chfq  which concerned API, not UI 
configuration page.
