Description
The issue is related to the rhn-migrate-classic-to-rhsm tool in Red Hat subscription-manager, which does not verify the Red Hat Network Classic server's X.509 certificate when migrating to a Certificate-based Red Hat Network. This allows remote man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information, such as user credentials. The exploitation of this issue can be done remotely and may lead to the disruption of protected information integrity.
