      "value": "In faye-websocket before version 0.11.0, there is a lack of certification validation in TLS handshakes. The `Faye::WebSocket::Client` class uses the `EM::Connection#start_tls` method in EventMachine to implement the TLS handshake whenever a `wss:` URL is used for the connection. This method does not implement certificate verification by default, meaning that it does not check that the server presents a valid and trusted TLS certificate for the expected hostname. That means that any `wss:` connection made using this library is vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack, since it does not confirm the identity of the server it is connected to. For further background information on this issue, please see the referenced GitHub Advisory. Upgrading `faye-websocket` to v0.11.0 is recommended."

      "value": "En faye-websocket versiones anteriores a 0.11.0, se presenta una falta de comprobaci\u00f3n de certificaci\u00f3n en los protocolos de enlaces TLS. La clase \"Faye::WebSocket::Client\" usa el m\u00e9todo \"EM::Connection #start_tls\" en EventMachine para implementar el protocolo de enlace TLS cada vez que una URL \"wss:\" es usada para la conexi\u00f3n. Este m\u00e9todo no implementa la verificaci\u00f3n de certificados por defecto, lo que significa que no comprueba que el servidor presente un certificado TLS v\u00e1lido y confiable para el nombre de host esperado. Eso significa que cualquier conexi\u00f3n \"wss:\" realizada con esta biblioteca es vulnerable a un ataque de tipo man-in-the-middle, ya que no confirma la identidad del servidor al que est\u00e1 conectado. Para obtener m\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n de fondo sobre este tema, consulte el Aviso de GitHub referenciado. Es recomendado actualizar \"faye-websocket\" a la versi\u00f3n  v0.11.0"
