I assumed they did have but it seems not :(

https://openjdk.java.net/groups/vulnerability/

The only mailing list they have that you can post to is for 
vulnerability reports.

I suspect you have to pick an OpenJDK distributor and then ask them 
about this, rather than trying to find out generically what "version of 
OpenJDK" contains a given fix. I'm pretty sure that we don't record CVE 
details when such fixes get integrated.
