Wenjie Zhang created KAFKA-4413: ----------------------------------- Summary: Kakfa should support default SSLContext Key: KAFKA-4413 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4413 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: security Affects Versions: 0.10.0.1 Environment: All Reporter: Wenjie Zhang
Currently, to enable SSL in either consumer or producer, we have to provide trustStore file and password. Ideally, if the Kafka server configured with CA signed certificate, since JRE includes certain CA ROOT certs inside "cacerts", Kafka should support using `SSLContext.getDefault()` when creating `SSLContext`, the changes need to be made at `org.apache.kafka.common.security.ssl.SslFactory.createSSLContext`, not sure if there is any other places needs to be updated for this enhancement -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
