Liberica JDK 8u452+11: Release Notes

JDK-8335912

Summary: Add an operation mode to the jar command when extracting to not overwriting existing files

Description: The jar tool’s extract operation has been enhanced to allow the --keep-old-files and the -k options to be used in preventing the overwriting of existing files. Examples: jar xkf foo.jar or jar --extract --keep-old-files --file foo.jar. Either of these commands will extract the contents of foo.jar. If an entry with the same name already exists in the target directory, then the existing file will not be overwritten.

JDK-8339637

Summary: Update Timezone Data to 2024b

Description: IANA Time Zone Database has been upgraded to 2024b. This version mainly includes changes to improve historical data for Mexico, Mongolia, and Portugal. It also changes one timestamp abbreviation, for the time zone 'MET'. Also Asia/Choibalsan is now an alias for Asia/Ulaanbaatar. The new tzdata changes also impact some legacy zone IDs. Mapping of EST/MST/HST in java.time.ZoneId.SHORT_IDS have changed from fixed offset zones to links to other existing time zones with 2024b. EST now links to America/Panama, HST links to Pacific/Honolulu and MST links to America/Phoenix. Parsing of the short zone names EST, MST, and HST is not affected by this change. Further details are available at JDK-8340138.

JDK-8346140

Summary: tools/jar/ExtractFilesTest.java and tools/jar/MultipleManifestTest.java fails with jtreg5.1

Description: The following tests are fixed to be compatible with jtreg 5.1: tools/jar/ExtractFilesTest.java, tools/jar/MultipleManifestTest.java.

JDK-8346587

Summary: Distrust TLS server certificates anchored by Camerfirma Root CAs

Description: The JDK will stop trusting TLS server certificates issued after April 15, 2025 and anchored by Camerfirma root certificates, in line with similar plans announced by Google, Mozilla, Apple, and Microsoft. TLS server certificates issued on or before April 15, 2025 will continue to be trusted until they expire. Certificates issued after that date, and anchored by any of the Certificate Authorities in the table below, will be rejected. The restrictions are enforced in the JDK implementation (the SunJSSE Provider) of the Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE) API. A TLS session will not be negotiated if the server’s certificate chain is anchored by any of the Certificate Authorities in the table below and the certificate has been issued after April 15, 2025.
