Description

The java-17-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 17 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 17 Java Software Development Kit. Security Fix(es): * JDK: Better Glyph drawing (CVE-2025-30749) * JDK: Enhance TLS protocol support (CVE-2025-30754) * JDK: Improve HTTP client header handling (CVE-2025-50059) * JDK: Better Glyph drawing redux (CVE-2025-50106) Bug Fix(es): * In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 systems, the default graphical display system is Wayland. The use of Wayland in these systems causes a failure in the traditional X11 method that java.awt.Robot uses to take a screen capture, producing a blank image. With this update, the RPM now recommends installing the PipeWire package, which the JDK can use to take screen captures in Wayland systems (RHEL-102668, RHEL-102669, RHEL-102670, RHEL-102672) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.
