[GitHub] [airflow] mik-laj commented on issue #16541: A way to make flask-caching optional / use a different caching mechanism

   I would like to add that it is possible to configure the Flask-app quite freely(only 2 options are hardcoded), and therefore also choose most of the cache configuration options. 
   https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/2d85a95e18afc8e4a0ac14968ede63df07a8f8f4/airflow/www/app.py#L72-L73
   https://github.com/sh4nks/flask-caching/blob/cb6a7a3d61057b07ebdc7a58359b41257fe0af93/flask_caching/__init__.py#L185-L195
   
   I also don't think this threat is quite real, as we don't store cache on the remote server (e.g. Redis/Memcache).  The attacker must have access to the local file system, which is already a much greater threat in most cases.
