CVE-2014-7144
First published: Thu Oct 02 2014(Updated: )
OpenStack keystonemiddleware (formerly python-keystoneclient) 0.x before 0.11.0 and 1.x before 1.2.0 disables certification verification when the "insecure" option is set in a paste configuration (`paste.ini`) file regardless of the value, which allows remote attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks via a crafted certificate.
