SCA: security update for org.opencastproject:opencast-kernel (GHSA-44cw-p2hm-gpf6)
medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 409932
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- Opencast before versions 8.9 and 7.9 disables HTTPS hostname verification of its HTTP client used for a
large portion of Opencast's HTTP requests. Hostname verification is an important part when using HTTPS to
ensure that the presented certificate is valid for the host. Disabling it can allow for man-in-the-middle
attacks. This problem is fixed in Opencast 7.9 and Opencast 8.8 Please be aware that fixing the problem
means that Opencast will not simply accept any self-signed certificates any longer without properly
importing them. If you need those, please make sure to import them into the Java key store. Better yet,
get a valid certificate. (CVE-2020-26234)
