It was discovered that the default TLS cipher suite configuration in the JSSE component of OpenJDK preferred certain weak ciphers over stronger ciphers. This issue was addressed by: - Preferring ciphers with forward secrecy. - Lowering priority of ciphers using RSA encryption key exchange. - Lowering priority of ciphers using SHA-1 hashing algorithm. Upstream commit: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk11u/commit/af4b37301d33723806c38cf8ae5d85b7fa7ef39f
Related noted in the Oracle JDK release notes: """ security-libs/javax.net.ssl ➜ Updated the Default Enabled Cipher Suites Preference The default priority order of the cipher suites for TLS 1.0 to TLS 1.3 has been adjusted. For TLS 1.3, TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 is now preferred over TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256. For TLS 1.0 to TLS 1.2, some of the intermediate suites have been lowered in priority as follows: Cipher suites that do not preserve forward secrecy have been moved lower in priority than those that do support forward secrecy. Cipher suites that use SHA-1 have been moved lower in priority. See JDK-8163326 (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8163326) """ https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/11-0-13-relnotes.html https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/8u311-relnotes.html
