Tibor Repasi commented on CASSANDRA-18778:
------------------------------------------

Hi, thanks for pinging. Sorry for the delayed response, I'm just back from 
holidays.

I've just tested 5.0-alpha1 (take3) on my test cluster set up with 
PEMBasedSslContextFactory which has required CASSANDRA-18124. The patch seems 
not inflicting with the features used there.

LGTM

>
> After CASSANDRA-18124 (introduced in 4.1.2 and 5.0) it is no longer possible 
> to set an empty {{keystore_password}} under {{client_encryption_options}} or 
> {{server_encryption_options}} using the default implementation 
> {{{}DefaultSslContextFactory{}}}.
> While keytool does not allow generating keystores with empty passwords, it 
> does support reading them. It is not uncommon to use PKCS12 certificates 
> generated by other tools (eg. openssl) that do not enforce passwords.
> The fix for this should be pretty straightforward, which should involve 
> changing 
> [FileBasedSslContextFactory.validatePassword|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-4.1.2/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/security/FileBasedSslContextFactory.java#L128-L135]
>  to only disallow null passwords (which would be consistent with previous 
> versions). I will create pull requests against the relevant branches shortly.
