Fix SSL security issue in the SMTP email relay code The hostname of the SSL socket was not verified. This made the read from the socket insecure since without verifying the hostname it may be vulnerable to a man-in-the-middle attack as described in [1]. This issue was reported by Sam Blackshear and Jules Villard from the Infer static analysis team at Facebook and it was detected by running Infer [2] on the Gerrit code base. As described in [3] Java 7 has a mechanism to verify the identity of the certificate directly as part of the SSLSocket/SSLEngine API, and with this change we make use of it to verify the hostname. I discussed this with Shawn and we decided to develop this fix in open source since the issue is in a non-critical part of Gerrit.

Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.
Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer.
Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer.
For information about how to install and use Gerrit, refer to the documentation.
Our canonical Git repository is located on googlesource.com. There is a mirror of the repository on Github.
Please report bugs on the issue tracker.
Gerrit is the work of hundreds of contributors. We appreciate your help!
Please read the contribution guidelines.
Note that we do not accept Pull Requests via the Github mirror.
The IRC channel on freenode is #gerrit. An archive is available at: echelog.com.
The Developer Mailing list is repo-discuss on Google Groups.

The instruction how to configure GerritForge/BinTray repositories is here
On Debian/Ubuntu run:
apt-get update & apt-get install gerrit=<version>-<release>
NOTE: release is a counter that starts with 1 and indicates the number of packages that have been released with the same version of the software.
On CentOS/RedHat run:
yum clean all && yum install gerrit-<version>[-<release>]
NOTE: release is optional. Last released package of the version is installed if the release number is omitted.
