While not recommended, you can also disable SSL cert validation alltogether:
import javax.net.ssl.*;
import java.security.SecureRandom;
import java.security.cert.X509Certificate;
public class SSLTool {
public static void disableCertificateValidation() {
// Create a trust manager that does not validate certificate chains
TrustManager[] trustAllCerts = new TrustManager[] {
new X509TrustManager() {
public X509Certificate[] getAcceptedIssuers() {
return new X509Certificate[0];
}
public void checkClientTrusted(X509Certificate[] certs, String authType) {}
public void checkServerTrusted(X509Certificate[] certs, String authType) {}
}};
// Ignore differences between given hostname and certificate hostname
HostnameVerifier hv = new HostnameVerifier() {
public boolean verify(String hostname, SSLSession session) { return true; }
};
// Install the all-trusting trust manager
try {
SSLContext sc = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL");
sc.init(null, trustAllCerts, new SecureRandom());
HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultSSLSocketFactory(sc.getSocketFactory());
HttpsURLConnection.setDefaultHostnameVerifier(hv);
} catch (Exception e) {}
}
}
