Hi Vincent,

Fix for the mentioned issue available in:

cli: 3.1.0.8

> 
> Hi folks.  This is a heads-up for anyone who may be shipping oVirt.
> oVirt 3.1 added a new python SDK and CLI which do various fancy things.
> It supports connecting to servers over SSL, but did not have support for
> validating certificates, which could lead to a mitm attack.
> 
> I've assigned CVE-2012-3533 to this issue.  It is corrected in git
> already.
