Upgrade dogtag-pki to version 11.2.1 or higher.
Overview
dogtag-pki is a Client library for Dogtag Certificate System
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Man-in-the-Middle (MitM). The pki.client.PKIConnection class did not enable python-requests certificate validation. Since the verify parameter was hard-coded in all request functions, it was not possible to override the setting. As a result, tools making use of this class, such as the pki-server command, may have been vulnerable to Person-in-the-Middle attacks in certain non-localhost use cases.
Note:This is fixed in 10.9.0-b1 which is not published on PyPi.
