CVE-2014-0022: Baseurl Yum

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 2.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The installUpdates function in yum-cron/yum-cron.py in yum 3.4.3 and earlier does not properly check the return value of the sigCheckPkg function, which allows remote attackers to bypass the RMP package signing restriction via an unsigned package.
