CWE-213
AllowedExposure of Sensitive Information Due to Incompatible Policies
Abstraction: Base · Status: Draft
The product's intended functionality exposes information to certain actors in accordance with the developer's security policy, but this information is regarded as sensitive according to the intended security policies of other stakeholders such as the product's administrator, users, or others whose information is being processed.
58 vulnerabilities reference this CWE, most recent first.
GHSA-F8J4-P5CR-P777
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-04-16 15:34 – Updated: 2025-04-17 12:39Impact
A vulnerability in the Backstage permission plugin backend allows callers to extract some information about the conditional decisions returned by the permission policy installed in the permission backend. If the permission system is not in use or if the installed permission policy does not use conditional decisions, there is no impact.
Patches
This issue has been resolved in version 0.6.0 of the permissions backend.
Workarounds
Administrators of the permission policies can ensure that they are crafted in such a way that conditional decisions do not contain any sensitive information.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-09-26 09:31 – Updated: 2026-06-05 14:17Apache Airflow 3 introduced a change to the handling of sensitive information in Connections. The intent was to restrict access to sensitive connection fields to Connection Editing Users, effectively applying a "write-only" model for sensitive values.
In Airflow 3.0.3, this model was unintentionally violated: sensitive connection information could be viewed by users with READ permissions through both the API and the UI. This behavior also bypassed the AIRFLOW__CORE__HIDE_SENSITIVE_VAR_CONN_FIELDS configuration option.
This issue does not affect Airflow 2.x, where exposing sensitive information to connection editors was the intended and documented behavior.
Users of Airflow 3.0.3 are advised to upgrade Airflow to >=3.0.4.
