Java 17

This is the last planned update of GraalVM for JDK 17 under the GFTC. Updates after September 2024 will be licensed under the GraalVM OTN License Including License for Early Adopter Versions (GOTN) and production use beyond the limited free grants of the GraalVM OTN license will require a fee.

Security Baselines

The security baselines for the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) at the time of the release of JDK 17.0.1 are specified in the following table:

Java 17

The JDK is a development environment for building applications using the Java programming language.

The JDK includes tools useful for developing and testing programs written in the Java programming language and running on the Java TM platform.

WARNING: Older versions of the JDK are provided to help developers debug issues in older systems. They are not updated with the latest security patches and are not recommended for use in production.

For production use Oracle recommends downloading the latest JDK version.

Only developers and enterprise administrators should download these releases.

For current Java releases, please visit Oracle Java SE Downloads.

New Platform Support

• JEP 391: macOS AArch64 Port – Ports the JDK to the macOS/AArch64 platform. This port will allow Java applications to run natively on the new Arm 64-based Apple Silicon computers.

• JEP 398: Deprecate the Applet API for Removal – All web-browser vendors have either removed support for Java browser plug-ins or announced plans to do so. The Applet API was deprecated, but not for removal, in Java 9 in September 2017.
• JEP 407: Remove RMI Activation – Removes the Remote Method Invocation (RMI) Activation mechanism, while preserving the rest of RMI.
• JEP 410: Remove the Experimental AOT and JIT Compiler – The experimental Java-based ahead-of-time (AOT) and just-in-time (JIT) compiler were experimental features that did not see much adoption. Being optional, they were already removed from JDK 16. This JEP removes these components from the JDK source code.
• JEP 411: Deprecate the Security Manager for Removal – The Security Manager dates back to Java 1.0. It has not been the primary means of securing client-side Java code for many years, and it has rarely been used to secure server-side code. Removing it in a future release will eliminate a significant maintenance burden and enable the Java platform to move forward.

Configuration

Configuring the JRE or JDK is not considered a modification for redistribution purposes.

You may configure the software by modifying the files under the conf/ directory as per the Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) Documentation, including selecting one or creating your own Java Cryptography Extension policy file under conf/security/policy . Once you select or create your own you are not required to include alternative policy files.

Root CA certificates may be added to or removed from the Java SE certificate file located in lib/security/cacerts through the use of the keytool utility available in the bin/ subdirectory of the JDK.

You may update the Timezone data included in the Java Runtime Environment by using the Java Time Zone Updater tool available in the Java SE Downloads page.
