details: "Example DAG: example_inlet_event_extra.py shipped with Apache Airflow version
  2.10.0 has a vulnerability that allows an authenticated attacker with only DAG trigger
  permission to execute arbitrary commands. If you used that example as the base of
  your DAGs - please review if you have not copied the dangerous example; see  https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/41873
   for more information. We recommend against exposing the example DAGs in your deployment.
  If you must expose the example DAGs, upgrade Airflow to version 2.10.1 or later."
