Insecure SSL Certificate Verification in Ansible

CVE-2015-3908 · MEDIUM Severity

AV:N/AC:M/AU:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

Ansible before 1.9.2 does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
