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 ovirt 3.1: does not validate server identity in new python SDK and CLI
It was reported that oVirt 3.1 did not properly validate SSL certificates of the server when the client would connect. This could permit man-in-the-middle attacks.
In oVirt sdk, the python httplib.HTTPSConnection function is used to let the programmer specify the client's pair of certificates, but does not force the underlying SSL library to check the server certificate against the client keys.
Because of this, the oVirt CLI tool does not check certificates upon connection.
The new python SDK (ovirt-engine-sdk) and new python CLI (ovirt-engine-cli) were introduced in oVirt 3.1 [1] ; earlier versions are not affected by this flaw.
This has been corrected in upstream git for the sdk [2] and the cli [3].
