Improper Certificate Validation
commons-httpclient:commons-httpclient is a component of the Apache HttpComponents project.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Man-in-the-Middle attacks due to not verifying that the requesting server hostname matches a domain name in the subject's Common Name (CN) or subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate. This allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
