While triaging your project, our bug fixing tool generated the following message(s)-
In file: utils.py, method: send_email, a clear-text protocol such as FTP, Telnet or SMTP is used. These protocols transfer data without any encryption, which expose applications to a large range of risks. iCR suggested that data should be transferred over only secure transport channels.
Changes
Added SSL & TLS based SMTP support in send_mail() method in timesketch/lib/utils.py
Added configuration related to the changes in data/timesketch.conf
