Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Certificate Validation. Vault’s Cassandra integrations did not have TLS certificate validation enabled for connections to Cassandra clusters. As a result, Vault may have connected to Cassandra clusters without adequately verifying the trustworthiness of the remote service and connection.
