RFR [10]: 8194307: KeyStore#getInstance with custom LoadStoreParameter succeeds with invalid password

The code change looks fine to me.

Do you mean that getInstance(File, LoadStoreParameter) should have never been invented because a static password should always be enough for a static file?

Thanks

Also, none of the existing JDK KeyStore file-based implementations support LoadStoreParameters, so this fix should be sufficient for now or until someone needs or requests that functionality.
