Last modified
CVE-2026-23983 is a low-severity vulnerability rated 2.3/10 on the CVSS scale. A Sensitive Data Exposure vulnerability exists in Apache Superset allowing authenticated users to retrieve sensitive user information. The Tag endpoint (disabled by default) allows users to retrieve a list of objects associated with a specific tag. When these associated objects include Users, the API response improperly serializes and returns sensitive fields, including password hashes (pbkdf2), email addresses, and login statistics. EPSS estimates a 0.40% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
