[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-613?page=all ]
Julius Davies updated HTTPCLIENT-613:
-------------------------------------
Attachment: SSLSocketFactory_improved.patch
- Better formatting on the curly braces (e.g. "} else {" now on one line).
- A few more comments.
- Hostname verification no longer throws an NPE under IBM 1.4.2 when accessing
a server that has spurious certificates in its chain. Instead it throws the
underlying reason that's actually bothering IBM (IBM-1.4.x hates spurious
certificates!).
Here's some testing:
=======================================
Ability to deal with spurious certificates in chain.
(I only tested on Linux)
Succeeds:
------------------------
IBM 1.5.0
JRockit 1.4.2
JRockit 1.5.0
Sun 1.4.2
Sun 1.5.0
Sun 1.6.0-rc
Fails:
------------------------
IBM 1.4.2
> https should check CN of x509 cert

> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HttpClient
> Affects Versions: Nightly Builds
> Reporter: Julius Davies
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 4.0 Alpha 1

> Attachments: SSLSocketFactory.patch, SSLSocketFactory_improved.patch

>
> https should check CN of x509 cert
> Since we're essentially rolling our own "HttpsURLConnection", the checking
> provided by "javax.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier" is no longer in place.
> I have a patch I'm about to attach which caused both createSocket() methods
> on o.a.h.conn.ssl.SSLSocketFactory to blowup:
> test1: javax.net.ssl.SSLException: hostname in certificate didn't match:
> <vancity.com> != <www.vancity.com>
> test2: javax.net.ssl.SSLException: hostname in certificate didn't match:
> <vancity.com> != <www.vancity.com>
> Hopefully people agree that this is desirable.
