Why hasn't anyone reported a bug against pywbem yet?

http://sourceforge.net/p/pywbem/bugs/?source=navbar

Why are we even supporting this library, it's not even global-
requirements:

Title:
  MITM vulnerability with EMC VMAX driver

Status in Cinder:
  In Progress
Status in OpenStack Security Advisories:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The EMC VMAX driver in Juno appears to blindly trust whatever
  certificate it gets back from the device without any validation (it
  does not specify the ca_certs parameter, etc. on
  WBEMConnection.__init__). This would leave it open to a MITM attack.
