Starting/stopping Amazon EC2 instances using CLI and Python SDK

It's a very good practice to scan your perimeter from the outside of your network, simulating an attacker. However, you will need to deploy the scanners somewhere to do this. Hosting on Amazon EC2 can be a good and cost-effective option, especially if you start instances with vulnerability scanne...

The python SDK before 3.1.0.6 and CLI before 3.1.0.8 for oVirt 3.1 does not check the server SSL certificate against the client keys, which allows remote attackers to spoof a server via a man-in-the-middle MITM attack...

CVE-2012-3533

The CVE-2012-3533 affects the oVirt 3.1 Python SDK (pre-3.1.0.6) and CLI (pre-3.1.0.8). Root cause: the client did not validate the server SSL certificate against its keys, enabling a MITM to spoof the server. Impact: potential remote spoofing of the server during TLS. Mitigation: upgrade to Pyth...
