python-glanceclient vulnerable to SSL server spoofing due to unverified X.509 certificate
Packages
| Ecosystem | Package | Affected | Fixed in |
|---|---|---|---|
| PyPI | python-glanceclient | < 0.10.0 | 0.10.0 |
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
The Python client library for Glance (python-glanceclient) before 0.10.0 does not properly check the preverify_ok value, which prevents the server hostname from being verified with a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate and allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
