hammer_cli_foreman

SEVERITY

CVSS v3.x: 8.1 (High)

PATCHED VERSIONS

  • >= 0.10.0

DESCRIPTION

Hammer CLI, a CLI utility for Foreman, before version 0.10.0, did not explicitly set the verify_ssl flag for apipie-bindings that disable it by default. As a result the server certificates are not checked and connections are prone to man-in-the-middle attacks.
