Red Hat Security Advisory 2024-3781-03 - An update is now available for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.4. Issues addressed include HTTP request smuggling, buffer overflow, code execution, cross site scripting, denial of service, memory exhaustion, null pointer, and password leak vulnerabilities.
When making requests through a Requests `Session`, if the first request is made with `verify=False` to disable cert verification, all subsequent requests to the same origin will continue to ignore cert verification regardless of changes to the value of `verify`. This behavior will continue for the lifecycle of the connection in the connection pool. ### Remediation Any of these options can be used to remediate the current issue, we highly recommend upgrading as the preferred mitigation. * Upgrade to `requests>=2.32.0`. * For `requests<2.32.0`, avoid setting `verify=False` for the first request to a host while using a Requests Session. * For `requests<2.32.0`, call `close()` on `Session` objects to clear existing connections if `verify=False` is used. ### Related Links * https://github.com/psf/requests/pull/6655
