Quick fix

PYSEC-2013-25 — qpid-python: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

pip install --upgrade 'qpid-python>=0.22'

Details

The Python client in Apache Qpid before 2.2 does not verify that the server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
