FKIE_CVE-2025-54415
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-07-26 04:16 - Updated: 2026-06-17 09:40
Severity
Summary
dag-factory is a library for Apache Airflow® to construct DAGs declaratively via configuration files. In versions 0.23.0a8 and below, a high-severity vulnerability has been identified in the cicd.yml workflow within the astronomer/dag-factory GitHub repository. The workflow, specifically when triggered by pull_request_target, is susceptible to exploitation, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code within the GitHub Actions runner environment. This misconfiguration enables an attacker to establish a reverse shell, exfiltrate sensitive secrets, including the highly-privileged GITHUB_TOKEN, and ultimately gain full control over the repository. This is fixed in version 0.23.0a9.

"value": "dag-factory es una librer\u00eda para Apache Airflow\u00ae que permite construir DAGs declarativamente mediante archivos de configuraci\u00f3n. En las versiones 0.23.0a8 y anteriores, se identific\u00f3 una vulnerabilidad de alta gravedad en el flujo de trabajo cicd.yml del repositorio de GitHub astronomer/dag-factory. Este flujo de trabajo, especialmente cuando se activa mediante pull_request_target, es susceptible de explotaci\u00f3n, lo que permite a un atacante ejecutar c\u00f3digo arbitrario en el entorno de ejecuci\u00f3n de GitHub Actions. Esta configuraci\u00f3n incorrecta permite a un atacante establecer un shell inverso, extraer informaci\u00f3n confidencial, incluido el token GITHUB_TOKEN con privilegios elevados, y finalmente obtener el control total del repositorio. Esto se ha corregido en la versi\u00f3n 0.23.0a9."
