Title
In Spring AMQP the RabbitConnectionFactoryBean.setUri("amqps://...") bypasses secure SSL setup, uses TrustEverythingTrustManager
Summary
Applications that configure their broker connection via RabbitConnectionFactoryBean.setUri("amqps://...") without also calling setUseSSL(true) get TLS encryption with no certificate validation and no hostname verification. Affected versions: Spring AMQP 4.0.0 through 4.0.3; 3.2.0 through 3.2.10; 3.1.0 through 3.1.15; 2.4.0 through 2.4.17.

Title
CKAN: No certificate validation on STMP connection
Summary
CKAN is an open-source DMS (data management system) for powering data hubs and data portals. Prior to 2.10.10 and 2.11.5, the configured SMTP server may be spoofed with any certificate (e.g. self-signed), leaving credentials and all emails sent open to MITM attacks. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.10.10 and 2.11.5.

CVE-2026-41016 (GCVE-0-2026-41016)

Title
Apache Airflow Providers SMTP: No certificate validation on SMTP STARTTLS connections in SMTP provider
Summary
Apache Airflow's SMTP provider `SmtpHook` called Python's `smtplib.SMTP.starttls()` without an SSL context, so no certificate validation was performed on the TLS upgrade. A man-in-the-middle between the Airflow worker and the SMTP server could present a self-signed certificate, complete the STARTTLS upgrade, and capture the SMTP credentials sent during the subsequent `login()` call. Users are advised to upgrade to the `apache-airflow-providers-smtp` version that contains the fix.

CVE-2026-41012 (GCVE-0-2026-41012)

Title
BOSH vSphere CPI Improper Cert Validation
Summary
Traffic interception vulnerability in BOSH Director vCenter CPI allows attackers positioned between BOSH Director and vCenter to impersonate vCenter REST API and capture administrator credentials via HTTP Basic auth, leading to complete virtualization infrastructure takeover. An attacker who can intercept traffic between the BOSH Director and vCenter can establish a malicious server impersonating the vCenter REST API. When the BOSH Director makes CPI calls to perform routine cloud infrastructure operations, the attacker captures the vCenter administrator username and password transmitted via HTTP Basic authentication. The vulnerability stems from insufficient authentication security in the communication protocol between BOSH Director and vCenter. While HTTPS may be used, the lack of proper certificate validation and pinning allows attackers to successfully impersonate vCenter endpoints. Because vCenter credentials typically grant full administrative control over the entire virtualization estate, successful credential capture yields complete takeover of every VM, datastore, and network the CPI manages. This exposure exists on every CPI call (including routine deployment operations, not just when tags are configured) and cannot be mitigated by supplying a CA certificate alone. The attack impacts all infrastructure managed by the compromised vCenter instance, potentially affecting hundreds or thousands of VMs across multiple deployments and environments.

CVE-2026-40944 (GCVE-0-2026-40944)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2026-04-21 21:14 – Updated: 2026-04-22 13:18
VLAI
Title
Oxia: TLS CA certificate chain validation fails with multi-certificate PEM bundles
Summary
Oxia is a metadata store and coordination system. Prior to 0.16.2, the trustedCertPool() function in the TLS configuration only parses the first PEM block from CA certificate files. When a CA bundle contains multiple certificates (e.g., intermediate + root CA), only the first certificate is loaded. This silently breaks certificate chain validation for mTLS. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.16.2.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Implementation

Certificates should be carefully managed and checked to assure that data are encrypted with the intended owner's public key.

Mitigation
Implementation

If certificate pinning is being used, ensure that all relevant properties of the certificate are fully validated before the certificate is pinned, including the hostname.

CAPEC-459: Creating a Rogue Certification Authority Certificate

An adversary exploits a weakness resulting from using a hashing algorithm with weak collision resistance to generate certificate signing requests (CSR) that contain collision blocks in their "to be signed" parts. The adversary submits one CSR to be signed by a trusted certificate authority then uses the signed blob to make a second certificate appear signed by said certificate authority. Due to the hash collision, both certificates, though different, hash to the same value and so the signed blob works just as well in the second certificate. The net effect is that the adversary's second X.509 certificate, which the Certification Authority has never seen, is now signed and validated by that Certification Authority.

CAPEC-475: Signature Spoofing by Improper Validation

An adversary exploits a cryptographic weakness in the signature verification algorithm implementation to generate a valid signature without knowing the key.
