Hi JDK dev team,

I find that https://jdk.java.net/archive/ has a bug that some hyperlinks point to wrong downloads.

For example,

18 GA (build 18+36)

Linux/AArch64
64-bit
tar.gz<https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk18/43f95e8614114aeaa8e8a5fcf20a682d/36/GPL/openjdk-18_macos-aarch64_bin.tar.gz> (sha256<https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk18/43f95e8614114aeaa8e8a5fcf20a682d/36/GPL/openjdk-18_linux-aarch64_bin.tar.gz.sha256>) 177M

The tar.gz points to a tarball for macos-aarch64 which should be corrected to linux-aarch64, while the sha256 points to a right link.

Tar.gz: https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk18/43f95e8614114aeaa8e8a5fcf20a682d/36/GPL/openjdk-18_macos-aarch64_bin.tar.gz
Sha256: https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk18/43f95e8614114aeaa8e8a5fcf20a682d/36/GPL/openjdk-18_linux-aarch64_bin.tar.gz.sha256

The two jdk-19 aarch64 links have similar issue.

19 GA (build 19+36)

Linux/AArch64
64-bit
tar.gz<https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk19/877d6127e982470ba2a7faa31cc93d04/36/GPL/openjdk-19_macos-aarch64_bin.tar.gz> (sha256<https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk19/877d6127e982470ba2a7faa31cc93d04/36/GPL/openjdk-19_linux-aarch64_bin.tar.gz.sha256>) 186M

19.0.1 (build 19.0.1+10)

Linux/AArch64
64-bit
tar.gz<https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk19.0.1/afdd2e245b014143b62ccb916125e3ce/10/GPL/openjdk-19.0.1_macos-aarch64_bin.tar.gz> (sha256<https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk19.0.1/afdd2e245b014143b62ccb916125e3ce/10/GPL/openjdk-19.0.1_linux-aarch64_bin.tar.gz.sha256>) 186M

I encountered this issue while trying to use older packages as boot jdks for experiments but am unsure where to report it. Could anyone please help forward it to the appropriate mailing list or contacts? Thank you!

Regards, Patrick
