How to Fix CVE-2026-82310

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2026-82310, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-613: Insufficient Session Expiration, where according to wasc, "insufficient session expiration is when a web site permits an attacker to reuse old session credentials or session ids for authorization.". In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Apache Airflow FAB provider: deactivating a user account does not stop tokens issued to that account before deactivation. Password authentication correctly rejects the disabled account, but the Core API continues to accept an existing, unexpired token naming it, and lets that token mint a replacement — so the account keeps its role-scoped access indefinitely after an administrator has disabled it. The user replays their own legitimate credential; no signature forgery or privilege escalation is involved, and the access stays within the roles the account already held. Affects deployments using Airflow 3 with the FAB auth manager and Core API token authentication, where an administrator deactivates an account whose row remains in the database and whose previously issued token has not expired. The trigger is administrative deactivation as a containment action, which silently fails to contain. Users of apache-airflow-providers-fab are recommended to upgrade to version 3.9.0 or later, which rejects tokens naming a deactivated account.
