Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Snowflake Connector for Python versions before 3.18.1, and versions 4.0.0 up to 4.7.1, do not properly verify TLS hostnames on HTTPS connections. An attacker with on-path network access, such as through ARP or DNS poisoning or a rogue proxy, could present a certificate from any trusted CA and intercept or alter traffic, potentially exposing credentials and query data. Upgrade to version 3.18.1 or 4.7.1.
