Edit rights on one Dag let a user delete queued asset events for every Dag they can read.

In Apache Airflow 3.3.2 before 3.4.0, the API that deletes an asset's queued events checks Dag edit permission against the dag_id query parameter, then deletes queued events for every Dag the caller can read. An authenticated user with edit permission on one Dag and read access to others could suppress asset-triggered runs of Dags they cannot edit. The advisory rates this low.

Unconfirmed: The post is cut off, so any further impact or credit is not in the snippet.

  • Authorization uses the dag_id query value, not each deleted row.
  • The effect is suppressing asset-triggered runs, not reading data.
  • Posted severity is low; the note is truncated after "This is".
