[Bug 1374001] [NEW] Xenserver glance plugin uses unsafe SSL connection

 

Public bug reported:

plugins/xenserver/xenapi/etc/xapi.d/plugins/glance _upload_tarball uses
httplib.HTTPSConnection objects. In Python 2.x those do not perform CA
checks so client connections are vulnerable to MiM attacks.

This is the specific version of
