GHSA-xgv7-pqqh-h2w9jruby-openssl gem for JRuby fails to do proper certificate validation2023-01-19ghsa · osvUS
A security problem involving peer certificate verification was found where failed verification silently did nothing, making affected applications vulnerable to attackers. Attackers could lead a client application to believe that a secure connection to a rogue SSL server is legitimate. Attackers could also penetrate client-validated SSL server applications with a dummy certificate.
