Hello, Alan commented on it :


  *   This proposal will require a security review as it leaks sensitive information into exceptions.

So I forward it to security-dev as well.

If needed,  we might  use something similar to  JDK-8207768  where a category  has been added  for  enhanced exception messages to the
java.security file .

Best regards, Matthias
