New

Critical patch updates, which contain security vulnerability fixes, are announced one year in advance. This JRE (version 8u45) will expire with the release of the next critical patch update scheduled for July 14, 2015.

Bug Fixes
- Area: tools/jar
- Synopsis: Improve jar file handling
- Starting with JDK 8u45 release, the jar tool no longer allows the leading slash "/" and ".." (dot-dot) path component in zip entry file name when creating new and/or extracting from zip and jar file. If needed, the new command line option "-P" should be used explicitly to preserve the dot-dot and/or absolute path component. Area: deploy/webstart
- Synopsis: jnlp app with nested "resource" section fails with NPE on load in jre8u40
- A jnlp application, with nested resources tags within a java or j2se tag, can throw an NPE. The issue is now fixed. The resources tag should be used only if the java is actually used.

Known Issues
- Area: core-libs/jdk.nashorn
- Synopsis: Finally blocks inlined incorrectly.
- Nashorn has known issues where it incorrectly compiles try/finally constructs. For more information on this issue and a workaround, see Try/finally compilation issues wiki page.
