Stefan Podkowinski commented on CASSANDRA-13259:
------------------------------------------------
As for the NEWS.txt entry, I'm not really sure what to report there.
Effectively the only change will be that instead of the SunX509 trust manager
the PKIX trust manager is now used by default (according to the linked openjdk
ticket). There should be no action necessary by the user.
> Use platform specific X.509 default algorithm

> Key: CASSANDRA-13259
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13259
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Configuration
> Reporter: Stefan Podkowinski
> Assignee: Stefan Podkowinski
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 4.x
>
>
> We should replace the hardcoded "SunX509" default algorithm and use the JRE
> default instead. This implementation will currently not work on less popular
> platforms (e.g. IBM) and won't get any further updates.
