> We found a security vulnerability in file [qpid-broker-j/broker-core/src/main/java/org/apache/qpid/server/security/SiteSpecificTrustStoreImpl.java|https://github.com/apache/qpid-broker-j/blob/a70ed6f5edbcf0e8690447d48a1fe64e599cb703/broker-core/src/main/java/org/apache/qpid/server/security/SiteSpecificTrustStoreImpl.java]. The customized TrustManger (at Line 339) allows all certificates to pass the verification.
> *Security Impact*:
> The checkClientTrusted and checkServerTrusted methods are expected to implement the certificate validation logic. Bypassing it could allow man-in-the-middle attacks.
> *Useful Resources*:

> [https://developer.android.com/training/articles/security-ssl|https://developer.android.com/training/articles/security-ssl#SelfSigned]
> *Solution we suggest:*
> Do not customize the TrustManger or specify the certificate validation logic instead of allowing all certificates. See [here|https://developer.android.com/training/articles/security-ssl] to securely allow self-signed certificates and other common cases.
> *Please share with us your opinions/comments if there is any:*
> Is the bug report helpful?
