3.5.3. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure vulnerability. When SSL/TLS is enabled but no CA or
server certificate is provided, the connector validates the server identity by fingerprint only after the
authentication exchange, so credentials are transmitted before validation occurs. An active man-in-the-middle can
capture those credentials.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
