New Google Play Restrictions

NNterprises

So I got an email a couple days ago from Google Play saying that my app (uploaded a couple months ago on latest GS version):

"Your app is using an unsafe implementation of the X509TrustManager interface with an Apache HTTP client, resulting in a security vulnerability...contains an unsafe implementation of the interface X509TrustManager. Specifically, the implementation ignores all SSL certificate validation errors when establishing an HTTPS connection to a remote host, thereby making your app vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks....blahh etc"

(See the entire article here: https://support.google.com/faqs/answer/6346016)

I just used the normal Gamesalad uploading process and don't have anything fancy going on... did I do something wrong and it's finally coming back to bite me? or is this an issue that has to be addressed by Gamesalad when compiling the apks?

Is anyone else getting this?

*******"Please address this issue as soon as possible and increment the version number of the upgraded APK. Beginning May 17, 2016, Google Play will block publishing of any new apps or updates containing the unsafe implementation of the interface X509TrustManager."

@NNODOLSKI this has been fixed by GS, you just need to republish your app and upload the new build to Google.

Here is the thread regarding the issue:
