Vulnerability Details
Certifi is a curated collection of Root Certificates for validating the trustworthiness of SSL certificates while verifying the identity of TLS hosts. Certifi 2022.12.07 removes root certificates from "TrustCor" from the root store. These are in the process of being removed from Mozilla's trust store. TrustCor's root certificates are being removed pursuant to an investigation prompted by media reporting that TrustCor's ownership also operated a business that produced spyware. Conclusions of Mozilla's investigation can be found in the linked google group discussion.

Research direction
Review the six requirements.txt files listed in the report under samples/server/petstore and samples/client/petstore. Update certifi to the stated fixed version, 2022.12.07, and verify that each affected dependency file resolves without certifi-2022.9.24. Done means all listed paths no longer reference the vulnerable release.
