CVE-2015-3908: Improper TLS Certificate Validation

August 12, 2015 (updated September 16, 2019)

Ansible fails to adequately validate HTTPS certificates when using the get_url and uri modules, and when using the url and etcd lookup plugins. This allows for man-in-the-middle attacks on those connections.
