Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Apache Airflow versions prior to 3.0.5

Description A parameter in the example dag decorator dag was not properly validated, potentially allowing a user of the Airflow UI to redirect the example to a malicious server and execute code on a worker node. This exploitation required that example dags were enabled in a production environment, which is not the default configuration, or that the example dag code was copied to create a similar dag.

Recommendations Review and update the example dag decorator dag to align with the changes implemented in Airflow 3.0.5.
