CVE-2026-86792: Apache Airflow Apache Kafka provider: Connection-editor remote code execution on the Scheduler via Kafka connection callback configuration

Apache Airflow Kafka provider 1.15.0 before 2.0.0 resolves unvalidated dotted-path strings into Python callables, enabling Scheduler RCE.

CVE-2026-86792 (moderate) affects apache-airflow-providers-apache-kafka versions 1.15.0 before 2.0.0. Dotted-path strings in a Kafka connection's extra field are resolved into Python callables via import_string with no allowlist, then invoked by the confluent-kafka client. This allows someone with Kafka connection configuration access to achieve remote code execution on the Airflow Scheduler; upgrading to 2.0.0 resolves it.

PostgreSQL Hit by 12-Year-Old Vulnerability Allowing Server Takeover

PostgreSQL flaw CVE-2026-6471, present since 2014, lets low-privilege replication accounts execute code and take over database servers; patches released.

Cyera researchers disclosed PostGREShell (CVE-2026-6471, CVSS 7.2), a missing-authorization bug in PostgreSQL logical decoding that lets users with REPLICATION privilege dlopen arbitrary files and execute code as the server account. The flaw affects PostgreSQL 9.4 through 18 and can yield privilege escalation, permanent superuser access and persistent backdoors on Windows, Linux and macOS. Fixes are available in versions 18.6, 17.11, 16.15, 15.19 and 14.24. Defenders should update and remove unnecessary Replication privileges.
