Doc Text:
CloudForms includes a default SSL/TLS certificate for the web server. This certificate is replaced at install time. However if an attacker were able to man-in-the-middle an administrator while installing the new certificate, the attacker could get a copy of the uploaded private key allowing for future attacks.
