A user who can read audit events but is denied Variable and Connection access can retrieve those values through the event-log API.\n\nUsers of apache-airflow are recommended to upgrade to 3.4.0 or later. Audit-log entries written before the upgrade keep the cleartext values: purge the affected entries and rotate the secrets they contain.","epss":null,"exploits":[],"kev":null,"metrics":[],"modifiedAt":1794217758059,"publishedAt":1794217758059,"references":[{"source":"CNA: apache","tags":["patch"],"url":"https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/72650"},{"source":"CNA: apache","tags":["related"],"url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-50204"},{"source":"CNA: apache","tags":["vendor-advisory"],"url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/yl4dlhvstlnc1qogcw3n4bx216cjsmoo"}],"remediation":[{"kind":"fix","source":"CNA: apache","text":"The reporting source identifies this reference as a patch.
