             Summary: [Java Broker] Truststore improvements
                 Key: QPID-7869
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-7869
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Java Broker
            Reporter: Keith Wall


The current TrustStore API requires some tidy up/improvements to allow an 
operator to better manage certificate expiry.

# Currently the details of certificates contained within the store are not 
exposed in a uniform manner. {#getCertificateDetails}} should be pulled up and 
implemented by all truststore types.  I suggest we standardise on the form 
currently used by {{ManagedPeerCertificateTrustStore#getCertificateDetails}} 
(i.e. the List<CertificateDetails>).  For the {{SiteSpecificTrustStore}} it 
should return a singleton list.
# KeyStores currently warn the user certificate are about to expire via 
operational log messages.  TrustStores should implement the same feature.
# For SSL client authentication, we should have a 'strict mode' where the 
{{validFrom}}/{{validTo}} date of the peer certificate is validated before the 
connection is accepted.    This will help users utilising self signed 
certificate for client authentication purpose effectively managed certificate 
expiration.
