Title: open jdk 6 truststore points to privileged access area Status in GlassFish: Unknown Status in Iced Tea: Invalid Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: open jdk 6 truststore setting "javax.net.ssl.trustStore" i.e "/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt " points to an area in the filesystem (/etc/ssl) that usually requires privileged access for read, write and execute. So any app run as a regular user that were to implicitly depend on the default truststore could end up not working in Ubuntu unless they overrode with a custom system prop which they were not earlier doing. This may be a problem for Java apps that did not have such an setting made earlier. Seems to be by the following icedtea patch, http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea6/file/d0081b7856c8/patches/icedtea-certbundle.patch The "javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword" has been set to an empty string too. Why? _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openjdk Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openjdk More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
