Apache Libcloud does not verify SSL certificates for HTTPS connections
🔗 CVE IDs covered (1)
📋 Description
libcloud before 0.4.0 does not verify SSL certificates for HTTPS connections, which allows remote attackers to spoof certificates and bypass intended access restrictions via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. This is due to an upstream issue with python's SSL module rather than directly with libcloud.
