Descriptions

The urlopen function in pym/portage/util/_urlopen.py in Gentoo Portage 2.1.12, when using HTTPS, does not verify X.509 certificates from SSL servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and modify binary package lists via a crafted certificate.

La función urlopen en pym/portage/util/_urlopen.py en Gentoo Portage 2.1.12, cuando utiliza HTTPS, no verifica los certificados X.509 de los servidores SSL, lo que permite a atacantes man-in-the-middle falsificar servidores y modificar listas de paquetes binarios a través de un certificado manipulado.

A vulnerability in Portage's urlopen function could allow a remote attacker to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack. Versions less than 2.1.12.2 are affected.
