Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Async Http Client (com.ning:async-http-client) versions before 1.9.0 do not require a hostname match when verifying X.509 certificates. An attacker positioned as a man-in-the-middle can present any valid certificate and impersonate HTTPS servers. Upgrade to version 1.9.0 or later.
