This minor version upgrade changes default behaviors that could impact TLS connections. The default hostname verification policy now delegates to the JSSE security manager instead of using HttpClient's built-in verifier.

Recommendation: If you have custom TLS configurations or rely on the previous hostname verifier, you must explicitly configure the TLS strategy to retain the old behavior.
