CVE-2026-46764
MEDIUMApache Airflow: Event Log detail endpoint bypasses DAG-scoped event log permission filter
EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.

Description
The Event Log detail endpoint GET /api/v2/eventLogs/{event_log_id} in Apache Airflow fetched audit-log rows directly by numeric ID after only the generic Audit Log permission check, while the collection endpoint GET /api/v2/eventLogs applied per-Dag scoping. An authenticated UI/API user with audit-log read permission for one Dag could retrieve audit-log entries for any other Dag by guessing or enumerating the numeric event log ID. Affects deployments that rely on per-Dag audit-log scoping. Users are advised to upgrade to apache-airflow 3.2.2 or later.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for apache-airflow. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.
Fix
Update apache-airflow to 3.2.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-46764 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2026-46764 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.
Tailored to CVE-2026-46764. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is CVE-2026-46764 in your dependencies?
O3 detects CVE-2026-46764 across PyPI dependencies and uses function-level reachability to confirm whether the vulnerable code path is actually reachable — not just present. No false positives.
