NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-twisted-web package and not the python-twisted-web package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
The (1) proton.reactor.Connector, (2) proton.reactor.Container, and (3) proton.utils.BlockingConnection classes in Apache Qpid Proton before 0.12.1 improperly use an unencrypted connection for an amqps URI scheme when SSL support is unavailable, which might allow man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information or modify data via unspecified vectors.
