Bolke de Bruin commented on AIRFLOW-1765:
-----------------------------------------
Airflow, out of the box, does not do authentication. Whether that is good or
not remains to be seen, but we should only adjust the API.
> Default API auth backed should deny all.

> Key: AIRFLOW-1765
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1765
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: api, authentication
> Affects Versions: 1.8.2
> Reporter: Ash Berlin-Taylor
> Priority: Blocker
> Labels: security
> Fix For: 1.9.0
>
>
> It has been discovered that the experimental API in the default configuration
> is not protected behind any authentication.
> This means that out of the box the Airflow webserver's /api/experimental/ can
> be requested by anyone, meaning pools can be updated/deleted and task
> instance variables can be read.
