RHBA-2021:0869 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An update for java-11-openjdk is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux
7.

Description

The java-11-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 11 Java Runtime
Environment and the OpenJDK 11 Java Software Development Kit.

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

• The method ManagementFactory.getPlatformMBeanServer() calls native code using the Java Native Interface (JNI). When running the method with the -Xcheck:jni option passed to the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), the native code was found to have a memory leak. This leak is fixed in this update.
