Apache Commons HttpClient 3.x, as used in Amazon Flexible Payments Service
(FPS) merchant Java SDK and other products, does not verify that the server
hostname matches a domain name in the subject’s Common Name (CN) or
subjectAltName field of the X.509 certificate, which allows
man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof SSL servers via an arbitrary valid
certificate.
