Status in GlassFish: Unknown
Status in Iced Tea: Confirmed
Status in Source Package "openjdk-6" in Ubuntu: Fix Released
Bug description:
open jdk 6 truststore setting "javax.net.ssl.trustStore" i.e
"/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt " points to an area in the filesystem
(/etc/ssl) that usually requires privileged access for read, write and execute.
So any app run as a regular user that were to implicitly depend on the default
truststore could end up not working in Ubuntu unless they overrode with a
custom system prop which they were not earlier doing. This may be a problem for
Java apps that did not have such an setting made earlier.
Seems to be by the following icedtea patch,
http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea6/file/d0081b7856c8/patches/icedtea-certbundle.patch
The "javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword" has been set to an empty string too. Why?
