The Ubuntu security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Ubuntu:16.04.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream async-http-client package and not the async-http-client package as distributed by Ubuntu.
main/java/com/ning/http/client/AsyncHttpClientConfig.java in Async Http Client (aka AHC or async-http-client) before 1.9.0 does not require a hostname match during verification of X.509 certificates, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof HTTPS servers via an arbitrary valid certificate.
