CVE-2023-25691
Improper Input Validation vulnerability in apache-airflow-providers-google (PyPI)
What is CVE-2023-25691 About?
This vulnerability is an Improper Input Validation issue affecting Apache Airflow Google Provider versions before 8.10.0. Attackers can exploit this by providing malformed or malicious input, which the application fails to adequately sanitize or validate. This could lead to various consequences depending on the context of the invalid input, and exploitation can be relatively straightforward if input channels are accessible.
Affected Software
Technical Details
The vulnerability arises from the Apache Airflow Google Provider failing to properly validate or sanitize user-supplied input. This lack of validation allows an attacker to provide input that deviates from expected formats or contains malicious content. The specific mechanism of exploitation would depend on where the invalid input is used. For example, if the input is used in SQL queries, it could lead to SQL injection; if used in command execution, it could lead to arbitrary command execution. The core issue is the trust placed on unsanitized user input within the provider's logic before version 8.10.0.
What is the Impact of CVE-2023-25691?
Successful exploitation may allow attackers to inject malicious data, bypass security checks, trigger unexpected application behavior, or potentially execute arbitrary code, leading to data compromise or system disruption.
What is the Exploitability of CVE-2023-25691?
Exploitation complexity could vary from low to medium, depending on the specific input field and its use within the application. Authentication and privileges would be required if the vulnerable input is accessible only to authenticated users with certain roles. It is likely a remote vulnerability, allowing attackers to submit malicious input over the network. Special conditions depend on the specific input vector and the context of its processing. Risk factors include allowing untrusted users to provide input to the Apache Airflow Google Provider, especially in critical configuration or operational parameters.
