Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-07-06 12:31 – Updated: 2026-07-06 12:31

Details

Apache Airflow's Google provider operators GCSToSFTPOperator and GCSTimeSpanFileTransformOperator joined GCS object names returned by the bucket listing API directly to a destination filesystem path without normalisation or containment check. A user with write access to the source GCS bucket (typically a different trust principal than the DAG author — partner uploads, ingest-only service accounts, public-data buckets) could create an object whose name contains .. segments and cause the DAG run to write the downloaded blob outside the configured destination (the SFTP destination_path for GCSToSFTPOperator; the worker-local temp directory for GCSTimeSpanFileTransformOperator), enabling overwrite of arbitrary files on the SFTP server or the worker host. Affects deployments that ingest from buckets writable by less-trusted principals. Users are advised to upgrade to apache-airflow-providers-google 22.2.1 or later.

CVE-2026-49297 (GCVE-0-2026-49297)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-07-06 09:54 – Updated: 2026-07-06 11:35

Title

Apache Airflow Google provider: Path traversal via GCS object names → local/SFTP filesystem (GCSToSFTPOperator + GCSTimeSpanFileTransformOperator)

Summary

Apache Airflow's Google provider operators `GCSToSFTPOperator` and `GCSTimeSpanFileTransformOperator` joined GCS object names returned by the bucket listing API directly to a destination filesystem path without normalisation or containment check. A user with write access to the source GCS bucket (typically a different trust principal than the DAG author — partner uploads, ingest-only service accounts, public-data buckets) could create an object whose name contains `..` segments and cause the DAG run to write the downloaded blob outside the configured destination (the SFTP `destination_path` for `GCSToSFTPOperator`; the worker-local temp directory for `GCSTimeSpanFileTransformOperator`), enabling overwrite of arbitrary files on the SFTP server or the worker host. Affects deployments that ingest from buckets writable by less-trusted principals. Users are advised to upgrade to `apache-airflow-providers-google` 22.2.1 or later.

Severity
