Description:
If remote logging is not used, the worker (in the case of CeleryExecutor) =
or the scheduler (in the case of LocalExecutor) runs a Flask logging server=
and is listening on a specific port and also binds on 0.0.0.0 by default.
This logging server had no authentication and allows reading log files of =
DAG jobs.
This issue affects Apache Airflow 2.1.2.
Mitigation:
Use remote logging with GCS, S3, Elasticsearch etc. This is recommended for=
production environments.
And do not publicly expose any other ports apart from Webserver port, =
Flower port etc.
