--------------------------------------
Summary: HTTP protocols to verify TLS/SSL certificates by default
Key: NUTCH-3221
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-3221
Project: Nutch
Issue Type: Bug
Components: protocol
Affects Versions: 1.23
Reporter: Sebastian Nagel
Fix For: 1.24
Verification of SSL/TLS certificates is off by default
(http.tls.certificates.check = false).
If verification is off, a no-op X509TrustManager is used in the protocol
implementations to bypass the verification.
For a web crawler, it can be a valid use case to skip the certificate
verification, in order to crawl sites with expired or self-signed certificates.
But this shouldn't be the default.
