acme v2 - scheduled deprecation of unauthenticated GETs

Hi there 👋
First, thank you for maintaining this library! I've been using it with great success until this last week, when cert renewals broke against the staging endpoints. I tried the latest version of acme4j (2.8) available in maven central and hit this error:
[main] DEBUG o.shredzone.acme4j.AcmeJsonResource - update Authorization
[main] DEBUG o.s.a.connector.DefaultConnection - GET https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/authz-v3/22511111

The root cause is that unsigned GET requests are no longer supported in staging (and will be removed in production around Nov, 2020: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/acme-v2-scheduled-deprecation-of-unauthenticated-resource-gets/74380
LetsEncrypt has elected to make the breaking change in v2, instead of rolling out a v3 endpoint: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/acme-breaking-change-most-gets-become-posts/71025
Wasn't sure if this was already on your radar - for now I can work around this by skipping the staging endpoint, but it would be nice to get this patched. Thoughts?
Thanks!
Hmm sorry, I think maven is playing tricks with me -- going to try again. Seems getDomain()
is no longer valid in 2.8..
GET requests have been removed since v2.5. The only exception is a GET request to fetch the directory, which is acceptable according to the RFC.
I ran my test suite to check it. Authorizations are updated via POST-as-GET request:
[main] DEBUG org.shredzone.acme4j.AcmeJsonResource - update Authorization
[main] DEBUG org.shredzone.acme4j.toolbox.JoseUtils - POST-as-GET https://localhost:14000/authZ/mLsucxCBfbIR-OCdbfFb8DdeUflSTlamj7FdeBL0H_g
So yes, it seems that your maven is keeping a pre v2.5 version of acme4j somewhere. 😄
