[jira] [Updated] (AXIS2C-1700) Enable SSL/TLS peer name validation by default

["Bill Blough (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2C-1700?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Bill Blough updated AXIS2C-1700:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
SSL/TLS peer name validation has been added but is disabled by default for backwards compatibility.

 

This should be enabled by default in a future release.

  was:
I've looked through the source code and cannot find any peer hostname validation code. It appears to me that Axis2/c is vulnerable to the problems discussed in this paper: http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~shmat/shmat_ccs12.pdf

Have I overlooked the TLS / SSL peer name validation?

Thanks
