I don't know the cause, but I had the same exact issue crop up this week and just got things to work. I had checked the build, distribution certificate, provisioning profile. I went through all of the troubleshooting steps in Technical Note TN2250 -- no luck! However, I just got it to upload successfully. I happened to have an old Mac Mini that had Application Loader 2.5.1 on it. I created a zip file from the .app within the Payload folder of the .ipa, put this on a USB drive, and watched as it finally uploaded after trying about 50 times with both Xcode organizer and Application Loader v2.9.

Other people have reccomended reverting to a previous Application Loader version. Perhaps the web service endpoint uses a different (and properly working) certificate validation method for older AL versions.
