CVE-2017-2667: SSL/HTTPS server certificates are not verified by default
in Hammer CLI

Hammer CLI, a REST API-based CLI for Foreman, initiated HTTPS
connections via the apipie-bindings and rest-client libraries without
verifying the SSL certificate presented by the server. This could allow
for man-in-the-middle attack.

This issue was reported by Tomas Strachota.
