I believe Marek fixed it months ago and the fix is already in Fedora. Marek can you confirm?

Comment 5 Marek Grac 2015-04-10 16:53:17 UTC

As is mentioned in CVE, this problem is only in RHEL6 where --ssl is transcribed to --ssl-insecure (no verification of SSL certificate) to not break existing installation. Starting from RHEL7 the default is --ssl => --ssl-secure, the very same approach is used in Fedora releases.

So, by default SSL certificates are verified but user can disable that verification using --ssl-insecure
