Maulin Vasavada commented on CASSANDRA-18124: --------------------------------------------- So far it looks like 1st option is more convoluted. 2nd option is much cleaner and simple changes. If we fail to provide `keystore_password` for the JKS, it will fail with the new changes (throws NPE since the FileBasedSslContextFactory.java) doesn't expect null for the password. I can add validation in the FileBasedSslContextFactory for the null keystore password to avoid NPE. > Config parameter keystore_password should be nullable > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-18124 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18124 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Local/Config > Reporter: Tibor Repasi > Assignee: Maulin Vasavada > Priority: Normal > Fix For: 4.1.x, 5.x > > > Some SSL configuration may pass unencrypted private keys.
