Severity: moderate 

Affected versions:

- Apache Airflow FTP provider (apache-airflow-providers-ftp) before 3.15.1

Description:

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.
