Hi, I've updated most of the OpenJDK ports for FreeBSD to the latest upstream version, which also includes the fixes for the vulnerable eMudhra CA certificates. The following versions are available in ports, both in latest and the last quarterly branch: - java/openjdk27 has been updated to version 27.0.1.0.2. - java/openjdk25 has been updated to version 25.0.5.0.2. - java/openjdk21 has been updated to version 21.0.13.0.2. - java/openjdk17 has been updated to version 17.0.21.0.2. OpenJDK 8 and 11 are still to be done. I would encourage anyone running services on OpenJDK on FreeBSD to upgrade after testing the new versions. Though I don't expect any issues, I have not had as much time to test these versions as much as I normally do. Please note that java/openjdk26 has _not_ been updated, but rather deprecated as it is no longer maintained by the OpenJDK project. Since it's missing the CA certificate fixes, it will expire already on 2026-12-01. Anyone still on OpenJDK 26 is encouraged to upgrade to OpenJDK 27, or if possible OpenJDK 25 which is the latest LTS version. Please file any issues you have with the updated ports in the FreeBSD bug tracker: https://bugs.freebsd.org Thanks to The FreeBSD Foundation for supporting my work on OpenJDK for FreeBSD, and to Greg Lewis and Kurt Miller for helping with this release. Take care! Harald
