Glide SSL Handshake exception

How to fix Android Glide SSL exception?

Hello everyone,

I decided to write about the Android Glide third-party library. We generally use this library in all projects. I’m going to talk about Glide SSL Handsake exception fix.

Important: This method supports above version 4th .

First of all, we will add the necessary section to build.gradle.

implementation 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:4.11.0'
implementation 'com.github.bumptech.glide:annotations:4.11.0'
implementation "com.github.bumptech.glide:okhttp3-integration:4.11.0"
annotationProcessor 'com.github.bumptech.glide:compiler:4.11.0'

After, we will sync project and we will add 2 class. Firstly, we will add MyGlideModule annotation class.

MyGlideModule.java

import android.content.Context;


import androidx.annotation.NonNull;


import com.bumptech.glide.Glide;
import com.bumptech.glide.GlideBuilder;
import com.bumptech.glide.Registry;
import com.bumptech.glide.annotation.GlideModule;
import com.bumptech.glide.integration.okhttp3.OkHttpUrlLoader;
import com.bumptech.glide.load.model.GlideUrl;
import com.bumptech.glide.module.AppGlideModule;
import java.io.InputStream;
import okhttp3.OkHttpClient;


@GlideModule
public class MyGlideModule extends AppGlideModule {


@Override
public void applyOptions(Context context, GlideBuilder builder)    {
        super.applyOptions(context, builder);
}


@Override
public void registerComponents(@NonNull Context context, @NonNull Glide glide, @NonNull Registry registry) {
    OkHttpClient okHttpClient= UnsafeOkHttpClient.getUnsafeOkHttpClient();
        registry.replace(GlideUrl.class, InputStream.class, new  OkHttpUrlLoader.Factory(okHttpClient));
}

Then, we will insert UnsafeOkHttpClient class in project.

UnsafeOkHttpClient.java

import java.security.cert.CertificateException;


import javax.net.ssl.SSLContext;
import javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory;
import javax.net.ssl.TrustManager;
import javax.net.ssl.X509TrustManager;


import okhttp3.OkHttpClient;


public class UnsafeOkHttpClient {

 public static OkHttpClient getUnsafeOkHttpClient() {
        try {
            final TrustManager[] trustAllCerts = new TrustManager[]{
                    new X509TrustManager() {
                        @Override
                        public void checkClientTrusted(java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] chain, String authType) throws CertificateException {
                        }


                        @Override
                        public void checkServerTrusted(java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] chain, String authType) throws CertificateException {
                        }


                        @Override
                        public java.security.cert.X509Certificate[] getAcceptedIssuers() {
                            return new java.security.cert.X509Certificate[]{};
                        }
                    }
            };


            // Install the all-trusting trust manager
            final SSLContext sslContext = SSLContext.getInstance("SSL");
            sslContext.init(null, trustAllCerts, new java.security.SecureRandom());


            // Create an ssl socket factory with our all-trusting manager
            final SSLSocketFactory sslSocketFactory = sslContext.getSocketFactory();


            OkHttpClient.Builder builder = new OkHttpClient.Builder();
            builder.sslSocketFactory(sslSocketFactory, (X509TrustManager) trustAllCerts[0]);
            builder.hostnameVerifier((hostname, session) -> true);


            OkHttpClient okHttpClient = builder.build();
            return okHttpClient;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new RuntimeException(e);
        }
    }

Yes. Now, we will clean&build project and use like this.

GlideApp.with(context).load("Image Url").into(imageView);

As a result, we will not receive an SSL Handshake exception and we will be able to use this library stably.
