Apache: >> Apache-Airflow-Providers-Ftp >> 2.0.0 Security Vulnerabilities
The Apache Airflow FTP provider's `FTPSHook.get_conn()` created an `ftplib.FTP_TLS` connection but never called `prot_p()`, so although the control channel was TLS-protected the data channel was transmitted in cleartext. Any deployment using `FTPSHook` or `FTPSFileTransmitOperator` to move files over FTPS exposed file contents and credentials-in-transit to a network attacker able to observe the data connection. Upgrade apache-airflow-providers-ftp to `3.15.1` or later, which issues `PROT P` to encrypt the data channel.

Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability in Apache Airflow FTP Provider.
The FTP hook lacks complete certificate validation in FTP_TLS connections, which can potentially be leveraged. Implementing proper certificate validation by passing context=ssl.create_default_context() during FTP_TLS instantiation is used as mitigation to validate the certificates properly.
This issue affects Apache Airflow FTP Provider: before 3.7.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.7.0, which fixes the issue.
