python-glanceclient is vulnerable to man-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks. This vulnerability is due to the fact that the preverify_ok value is not correctly checked. This prevents the hostname from being validated with a domain name in the Common Name or SubjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, allowing malicious users to perform man-in-the-middle attacks through an arbitrary valid certificate.
