X509TrustManager Override without allowing ALL certs?

Question

I am currently overriding X509TrustManager to allow all certs as a temporarily \'solution\' (an unsafe one at that). I am trying to figure out how I would go about adding in

Answer 1

All you need to do is return the certificate from getAcceptedIssuers. See this

 InputStream inStream = new FileInputStream("fileName-of-cert");
 CertificateFactory cf = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509");
 X509Certificate cert = (X509Certificate)cf.generateCertificate(inStream);
 inStream.close();

and then return that in an array within the method

Answer 2

One possibility would be to temporarily add the problematic certificate to your JVM's key store as a trusted certificate.
