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.

Affected products

Red Hat Satellite 6: 6.3
RedHat Satellite Capsule: 6.3
Foreman Hammer CLI: before 0.10.0 — fixed in 0.10.0

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: Foreman Hammer CLI 0.10.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
