What is CVE-2026-96806?

A significant session management vulnerability exists in Apache Airflow's Keycloak authentication manager. When a user logs out, the session is not properly terminated, as the logout route incorrectly issues a new, unrevoked authentication token. This flaw allows anyone with access to the same browser session to continue using the application as the logged-out user, posing serious risks in shared environments. Users are strongly advised to upgrade to apache-airflow-providers-keycloak version 0.11.1 or later to mitigate this issue.

Affected Version(s)

Apache Airflow Keycloak provider 0 < 0.11.1
