From Oracle’s 8u211 release notes at https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/2col/8u211-bugfixes-5292912.html, this issue

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8129988: JSSE should create a single instance of the cacerts KeyStore

was in Oracle’s 8u211, but not in OpenJDK 8u212. I’ve just pushed a backport to jdk8u-dev.

There are two more of these.

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8174268: Declare a public field in JapaneseEra for the era starting May 2019

This has a patch we can backport, which I’ll do.

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8216577: Add GlobalSign’s R6 Root certificate
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8214188: Certify GlobalSign’s R6 root certificate

This doesn’t have a patch, but the necessary info is in JBS. I don’t know how to add a cert, however, so it’d be best if someone knowledgeable did the work.

Thanks,

Paul
