>                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1051
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1051
>             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: HttpConn
>    Affects Versions: 4.1 Final
>            Reporter: Alex Dupre
>            Priority: Minor
>
> HttpClient 4.1 introduced a regression in establishing SSL connections to 
> remote peers (it seems this is a common regression for major httpclient 
> updates, see HTTPCLIENT-803).
> The new SSLSocketFactory.connectSocket method calls the X509HostnameVerifier 
> with InetSocketAddress.getHostName() parameter. When the selected IP address 
> has a reverse lookup name, the verifier is called with the resolved name, and 
> so the IP check fails.
> 4.0 release checked for original ip/hostname, but this cannot be done with 
> the new connectSocket() method. 
> The TestHostnameVerifier.java only checks 127.0.0.1/.2 and so masked the 
> issue, because the matching certificate has both "localhost" and "127.0.0.1", 
> but actually only "localhost" is matched. A test case with 8.8.8.8 would be 
> better.
