HIGH 8.8WATCHLISTUPGRADE

CVE-2025-69219 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 8.8) affecting airflow providers http. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

A user with access to the DB could craft a database entry that would result in executing code on Triggerer - which gives anyone who have access to DB the same permissions as Dag Author. Since direct DB access is not usual and recommended for Airflow, the likelihood of it making any damage is low. You should upgrade to version 6.0.0 of the provider to avoid even that risk.

apache airflow providers http UPGRADE

Affected: >= 5.1.0 and < 6.0.0

Fixed in: 6.0.0

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 5.1.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy airflow-providers-http || rpm -q airflow-providers-http || airflow-providers-http --version

2. UPGRADE to 6.0.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade airflow-providers-http

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade airflow-providers-http

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 5.1.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison airflow-providers-http sudo apt install airflow-providers-http=<VERSION_BEFORE_5.1.0> sudo apt-mark hold airflow-providers-http

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list airflow-providers-http sudo dnf downgrade airflow-providers-http-<VERSION_BEFORE_5.1.0> sudo dnf versionlock add airflow-providers-http

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
