Dongjin Lee commented on KAFKA-12703:
-------------------------------------
[~trobador] It seems like you are right. According to
[KIP-651|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-651+-+Support+PEM+format+for+SSL+certificates+and+private+key]
which introduced 'ssl.key.password', it states "If the key is encrypted, key
password must be specified using 'ssl.key.password'." In other words, it allows
key password may not be specified.
[~rsivaram] [~omkreddy] Could you have a look? I thought you must be the best
reviewer since you wrote or reviewed the KIP.

> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: clients
> Affects Versions: 2.8.0
> Reporter: Brian Bascoy

> Unencrypted PEM files seem to be internally [supported in the

> but setting an ssl.key.password is currently enforced by createKeystore (on
> DefaultSslEngineFactory). I was unable to find a reason for this, so I wonder
> if this limitation could simply be removed:
