QID 997511

Date Published: 2024-02-26

QID 997511: Python (Pip) Security Update for apache-libcloud (GHSA-w3j6-8j34-q43x)

libcloud before 0.4.1 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.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to a security breach or could affect integrity, availability, and confidentiality.

CVSS V3 rated as Critical - 8.6 severity.

CVSS V2 rated as Medium - 4.3 severity.
