Answer in brief
CVE-2026-40690 records a Medium severity (CVSS 4.3) vulnerability in Apache Airflow: Assets graph view bypasses DAG level access control displaying unrelated topologies and all DAGs names to unauthorized users. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Apache Software Foundation/apache-airflow (generic), Apache Software Foundation/apache-airflow-core (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.

The asset dependency graph did not restrict nodes by the viewer's DAG read permissions: a user with read access to at least one DAG could browse the asset graph for any other asset in the deployment and learn the existence and names of DAGs and assets outside their authorized scope. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.2.1, which fixes this issue.
