ssl-with-no-version (S504)

Added in v0.2.0 · Related issues · View source

Derived from the flake8-bandit linter.

What it does

Checks for calls to ssl.wrap_socket() without an ssl_version.

Why is this bad?

This method is known to provide a default value that maximizes compatibility, but permits use of insecure protocols.

Example

import ssl

ssl.wrap_socket()

Use instead:

import ssl

ssl.wrap_socket(ssl_version=ssl.PROTOCOL_TLSv1_2)
