How to fix?

Upgrade qpid-python to version 0.26 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Input Validation. The Python client in Apache Qpid before 2.2 does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
