Severity: moderate
Description:
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command
Injection') vulnerability in Apache Airflow Hive Provider, Apache Airflow
allows an attacker to execute arbtrary commands in the task execution context,
without write access to DAG files. This issue affects Hive Provider versions
prior to 4.1.0. It also impacts any Apache Airflow versions prior to 2.3.0 in
case HIve Provider is installed (Hive Provider 4.1.0 can only be installed for
Airflow 2.3.0+). Note that you need to manually install the HIve Provider
version 4.1.0 in order to get rid of the vulnerability on top of Airflow 2.3.0+
version that has lower version of the Hive Provider installed).
