> CXF client (JAXWS & JAXRS) for HTTPS calls currently only allows to disable
> hostname verification ({{<http-conf:tlsClientParameters disableCNCheck="true"
> />}}) but does not allow to disable X509 certificates checking.
> Due to this, it can be painful to invoke services with self-signed
> certificates on non-production environments (see sample stacktrace below).
> Here is a proposal to disable all X509 certificates in CXF (JAXWS & JAXRS)
> clients :
> * Add boolean attribute {{trustAllCertificates}} to
> {{<http-conf:tlsClientParameters ... />}},
> * In the {{HTTPConduit}}, if {{trustAllCertificates="true"}}, the
> {{HttpsURLConnectionFactory}} will use an 'accept all certificates'
> {{javax.net.ssl.X509TrustManager}} and an 'accept all'
> {{javax.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier}}.
> *Note* : this proposal adds an attribute {{trustAllCertificates}} to the
> {{TLSClientParametersType}} complex type and thus *this proposal requires to
> publish a new 'backward compatible'
> [http://cxf.apache.org/schemas/configuration/security.xsd]*.
> Configuration sample enabling 'trustAllCertificates' to invoke an HTTPS
> service:
> {code:xml}
> <jaxws:client id="helloWorldServiceClient"
> serviceClass="com.example.HelloWorldService"
> address="https://example.com/services/helloWorldService";>
> </jaxws:client>
> <http-conf:conduit
> name="{http://example.com/}HelloWorldServicePort.http-conduit";>
> <!-- trust all certificates (self signed certificates, etc) -->
> <http-conf:tlsClientParameters trustAllCertificates="true" />
>
> <http-conf:authorization>
> <security:UserName>my-user-name</security:UserName>
> <security:Password>my-password</security:Password>
> </http-conf:authorization>
> </http-conf:conduit>
> {code}
