> http/conn/ssl/SSLConnectionSocketFactory.java in Apache HttpComponents

> https://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2012-5783
> Apache Commons HttpClient 3.x, as used in Amazon Flexible Payments Service
> (FPS) merchant Java SDK and other products, does not verify that the server
> hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or
> subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle
> attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
