Oracle recommends that the JDK is updated with each Critical Patch Update (CPU). In order to determine if a release is the latest, the Security Baseline page can be used to determine which is the latest version for each release family.

Critical patch updates, which contain security vulnerability fixes, are announced one year in advance on Critical Patch Updates, Security Alerts and Bulletins. It is not recommended that this JDK (version 11.0.11) be used after the next critical patch update scheduled for July 20, 2021.

jdeps --print-module-deps, --list-deps, and --list-reduce-deps options have been enhanced as follows.

1. By default, they perform transitive module dependence analysis on libraries on the class path and module path, both directly and indirectly, as required by the given input JAR files or classes. Previously, they only reported the modules required by the given input JAR files or classes. The --no-recursive option can be used to request non-transitive dependence analysis.

2. By default, they flag any missing dependency, i.e. not found from class path and module path, as an error. The --ignore-missing-deps option can be used to suppress missing dependence errors. Note that a custom image is created with the list of modules output by jdeps when using the --ignore-missing-deps option for a non-modular application. Such an application, running on the custom image, might fail at runtime when missing dependence errors are suppressed.

jdk.jndi.object.factoriesFilter: This system and security property allows a serial filter to be specified that controls the set of object factory classes permitted to instantiate objects from object references returned by naming/directory systems. The factory class named by the reference instance is matched against this filter during remote reference reconstruction. The filter property supports pattern-based filter syntax with the format specified by JEP 290. This property applies both to the JNDI/RMI and the JNDI/LDAP built-in provider implementations. The default value allows any object factory class specified in the reference to recreate the referenced object.

com.sun.jndi.ldap.object.trustSerialData: This system property allows control of the deserialization of java objects from the javaSerializedData LDAP attribute. To prevent deserialization of java objects from the attribute, the system property can be set to false value. By default, deserialization of java objects from the javaSerializedData attribute is allowed.

The following root certificates have been added to the cacerts truststore:

+ HARICA

  + haricarootca2015
    DN: CN=Hellenic Academic and Research Institutions RootCA 2015, O=Hellenic Academic and Research Institutions Cert. Authority, L=Athens, C=GR

  + haricaeccrootca2015

TLS 1.0 and 1.1 are versions of the TLS protocol that are no longer considered secure and have been superseded by more secure and modern versions (TLS 1.2 and 1.3).

These versions have now been disabled by default. If you encounter issues, you can, at your own risk, re-enable the versions by removing "TLSv1" and/or "TLSv1.1" from the jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms security property in the java.security configuration file.

In this release, some of the one-way byte-to-char mappings have been aligned with the preferred mappings provided by the Unicode Consortium.

In the java.lang.ProcessBuilder implementation on Windows, the system property jdk.lang.Process.allowAmbiguousCommands=false ensures, for each argument, that double-quotes are properly encoded in the command string passed to Windows CreateProcess. An argument with a final trailing double-quote preceded by a backslash is encoded as a literal double-quote; previously, the argument including the double-quote would be joined with the next argument. An empty argument is encoded as a pair of double-quotes ("") resulting in a zero length string passed for the argument to the process; previously, it was silently ignored. An argument containing double-quotes, other than first and last, is encoded to preserve the double-quotes when passed to the process; previously, the embedded double-quotes would be dropped and not passed to the process. If a security manager is set, such as in WebStart applications, double-quotes are encoded as described. When there is no security manager, there is no change to existing behavior; the jdk.lang.Process.allowAmbiguousCommands property can be set to true: jdk.lang.Process.allowAmbiguousCommands=true or false. If left unset, it is the same as setting it to true.
