What's new in this version:

IANA TZ Data 2022d, 2022e, 2022f:
- JDK 8u361 contains IANA time zone data 2022d, 2022e, 2022f
- Palestine transitions are now Saturdays at 02:00
- Simplify three Ukraine zones into one
- Jordan and Syria switch from +02/+03 with DST to year-round +03
- Mexico will no longer observe DST except near the US border
- Chihuahua moves to year-round -06 on 2022-10-30
- Fiji no longer observes DST
- Move links to 'backward'
- In vanguard form, GMT is now a Zone and Etc/GMT a link
- Zic now supports links to links, and vanguard form uses this
- Simplify four Ontario zones
- Fix a Y2438 bug when reading TZif data
- Enable 64-bit time_t on 32-bit glibc platforms
- Omit large-file support when no longer needed
- In C code, use some C23 features if available
- Remove no-longer-needed workaround for Qt bug 53071

New Features:
- Security-libs/java.security
- Support for RSASSA-PSS in OCSP Response (JDK-8274471)
- An OCSP response signed with the RSASSA-PSS algorithm is now supported

Other Notes:
- Javafx/fxml
- FXML JavaScript Engine Disabled by Default (JDK-8294779 (not public))
- The “JavaScript script engine” for FXML is now disabled by default. Any .fxml file that has a "javascript" Processing Instruction (PI) will no longer load by default, and an exception will be thrown.
- It can be enabled by setting the system property: -Djavafx.allowjs=true
- Core-libs/java.lang
- Incorrect Handling of Quoted Arguments in ProcessBuilder (JDK-8282008)
- ProcessBuilder on Windows is restored to address a regression caused by JDK-8250568. Previously, an argument to ProcessBuilder that started with a double-quote and ended with a backslash followed by a double-quote was passed to a command incorrectly and may cause the command to fail. For example the argument "C:\Program Files", would be seen by the command with extra double-quotes. This update restores the long standing behavior that does not treat the backslash before the final double-quote specially.
- Core-libs/java.net
- Make HttpURLConnection Default Keep Alive Timeout Configurable (JDK-8278067)
- Two system properties have been added which control the keep alive behavior of HttpURLConnection in the case where the server does not specify a keep alive time. Two properties are defined for controlling connections to servers and proxies separately. They are http.keepAlive.time.server and http.keepAlive.time.proxy respectively. More information about them can be found in Networking Properties.
- Tools/visualvm
- VisualVM tool no longer bundled (JDK-8294184)

Fixed:
- X11 default visual support for IM status window on VNC
- Check ZALLOC return values in awt coding
- Leak XVisualInfo in getAllConfigs in awt_GraphicsEnv.c
- Last column cell in the JTable row is read as empty cell
- RandomGenerator:NextDouble() default behavior non conformant after JDK-8280550 fix
- RandomGenerator:NextDouble() default behavior partially fixed by JDK-8280950
- ISO 4217 Amendment 173 Update
- Jdb does not include jdk.* in the default class filter
- Jcmd started by "root" must be allowed to access all VM processes
- Document jdk.xml.xpathExprGrpLimit, jdk.xml.xpathExprOpLimit, and jdk.xml.xpathTotalOpLimit in the JAXP Security Guide
- JDK 8 man page incorrectly states -XX:ThreadStackSize=size sets the thread stack size (in bytes).
- C2 compiler triggers SIGSEGV after transformation in ConvI2LNode::Ideal
- C1: assert(is_virtual()) failed: type check
- [AOT] assert(false) failed: DEBUG MESSAGE: InterpreterMacroAssembler::call_VM_base: last_sp != NULL
