OpenSSL 1.1 support for Java 1.8.0?

robert-scheck opened this issue · comments

The lookaside OpenSSL seems to be OpenSSL 1.0.2…is there any chance for OpenSSL 1.1 support for Java 1.8.0 to achieve TLSv1.3 support? CentOS/RHEL 8 seems to use OpenSSL 1.1 for Java 1.8.0, thus it likely works with less effort?

Hi, this part is a bit confusing:

  1. note that OpenSSL is NOT used by OpenJDK itself, it is used only by the update utility in installer that needs to fetch the update info without spawning a JVM

  2. TLS 1.3 is supported in OpenJDK 8, IIRC it was added in 8u272, see JDK-8248721 for details

  3. OpenSSL in a lookaside repo (for update utility) follows the openssl RPM from RHEL/CentOS 7 (not 8), version 1.0.2.k (with additional patches) is the latest available there

Hope this helps.

Closing the issue, please reopen if needed.

Thank you very much for the clarification.
