robert lazarski commented on AXIS-2905:
---------------------------------------

I looked more into this, after applying the patch here's the error:

[ERROR] Undefined reference: 
javax/naming/ldap/LdapName.getRdns()Ljava/util/List; in 
/home/robert/repos/aa/axis-project/axis-rt-core/target/classes/org/apache/axis/components/net/JSSESocketFactory.class

Which led me to believe that method is not on the classpath, however with JDK 8 
its there after all. The problem is with animal sniffer, which I have no doubt 
it is working as intended:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal 
org.codehaus.mojo:animal-sniffer-maven-plugin:1.8:check (default) on project 
axis-rt-core: Signature errors found. Verify them and put @IgnoreJRERequirement 
on them. -> [Help 1]

Since this is a cert patch, the signature the error references is not about 
that but rather the API signature - LdapName is "Since 1.5" and the plugin 
seems to be blocking that reference for anything after 1.4. If I comment out 
that plugin in the root pom.xml it compiles fine. 

[~veithen] not sure if you are active on axis 1.x anymore ... do we really need 
to force JDK 1.4 source compatibility with animal sniffer at this point?

> It was found that the fix for CVE-2012-5784 was incomplete. The code added to 
> check that the server hostname matches the domain name in the subject's CN 
> field was flawed. This can be exploited by a Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack 
> where the attacker can spoof a valid certificate using a specially crafted 
> subject.
