CVE-2026-86462: Apache Airflow FAB provider: FAB Admin password PATCH does not invalidate database-backed sessions
Apache Airflow FAB provider 3.2.0-3.8.x password changes do not invalidate database-backed sessions, letting stolen session cookies survive a password reset.
CVE-2026-86462 affects apache-airflow-providers-fab versions 3.2.0 before 3.9.0. Changing a user's password via the Admin user-edit PATCH endpoint does not invalidate that user's existing database-backed sessions. An attacker who already holds a copy of the victim's session cookie retains full access as that user after the password change. Severity is rated moderate.
