Java SE 7 Update Release Notes

Please note that fixes from prior BPR (7u76 b33) are included in this version. Please note that fixes from prior BPR (7u76 b38) are included in this version. With this fix, JSSE endpoint identification does not perform reverse name lookup for IP addresses by default in JDK. Not finding the PICL library is a very minor issue, and the warnings mostly lead to confusion. This enhancement provides a way to specify more granular levels for the GC verification enabled using the VerifyBeforeGC, VerifyAfterGC, and VerifyDuringGC diagnostic options.

When transparent authentication is not available or unsuccessful, the JDK only supports getting credentials from a global authenticator. If connection to the server is successful, the authentication information will then be cached and reused for further connections to the same server. In addition, connecting to an HTTP NTLM server usually involves keeping the underlying connection alive and reusing it for further requests to the same server. In some applications, it may be desirable to disable all caching for the HTTP NTLM protocol in order to force requesting new authentication with each new requests to the server. A new JDK implementation specific system property to control caching for HTTP NTLM connection is introduced.

Java SE

The jarsigner tool now shows more information about the lifetime of a timestamped JAR. New warning and error messages are displayed when a timestamp has expired or is expiring within one year. Prior to this fix, Windows Server 2019 was recognized as „Windows Server 2016”, which produced incorrect values in the os.name system property and the hs_err_pid file. Please note that fixes from prior BPR (7u221 b35) are included in this version. The Swing GTK Look & Feel in JDK 7u depends on GTK2 libraries provided by the OS.

Note that bug fixes in previous BPR are also included in the current BPR. The full version string for this update release is 1.7.0_97-b02 (where „b” means „build”). The full version string for this update release is 1.7.0_99-b04 (where „b” means „build”). The full version string for this update release is 1.7.0_101-b14 (where „b” means „build”). The full version string for this update release is 1.7.0_111-b13 (where „b” means „build”).

Enterprise Java (Cloud & OnPrem Technologies)

By default, the deserialization of java objects from javaSerializedData and javaReferenceAddress attributes is allowed. As an example, in the URL authority component, the new parsing only accepts brackets around IPv6 literal addresses. Developers are encouraged to use java.net.URI constructors or its factory method to build URLs rather than handcrafting URL strings. Specifically, your environment is supported only if you follow the Microsoft guidelines when dealing with multiple runtimes.

Key size must be multiples of 64 if less than 1024 bits, or 2048 bits. A new java attribute has been defined for the environment to allow a JMX RMI JRMP server to specify a list of class names. These names correspond to the closure of class names that are expected by the server when deserializing credentials. For instance, if the expected credentials were a List, then the closure would constitute all the concrete classes that should be expected in the serial form of a list of Strings.

Java™ SE Development Kit 7, Update 361 (JDK 7u – Restricted

The system property jdk.security.useLegacyECC, which was introduced in the update releases 7u231 and 8u221, is turned off by default. The following sections summarize changes made in all Java SE 7u241 BPR releases. The following sections summarize changes made in all Java SE 7u271 BPR releases. The following sections summarize changes made in all Java SE 7u281 BPR releases. The following sections summarize changes made in all Java SE 7u291 BPR releases.

• This includes algorithms and parameters for key protection, certificate protection, and MacData.
• The BPR releases are listed below in date order, most current BPR first.
• For example, to disable SHA-1 TLS Server certificate chains that are anchored by pre-installed root CAs, the constraint is „SHA1 jdkCA & usage TLSServer”.
• The full version string for this update release is 1.7.0_211-b07 (where „b” means „build”).

A TLS server certificate must be an exact match of a trusted certificate on the client in order for it to be trusted when establishing a TLS connection. It is not guaranteed to be supported by other Java SE implementations. java 7 certifications (1) No public JRE installation GUI is offered during the JDK install. This removes the user’s ability during the JDK installation to specify a custom directory in the GUI for the public JRE.
