Important: java-1.8.0-openjdk security update

The java-1.8.0-openjdk packages provide the OpenJDK 8 Java Runtime Environment and the OpenJDK 8 Java Software Development Kit. Security Fix(es): * JDK: Improve JMX connections (CVE-2026-21925) * JDK: Improve HttpServer Request handling (CVE-2026-21933) * JDK: Enhance Certificate Checking (CVE-2026-21945) * libpng: LIBPNG buffer overflow (CVE-2025-64720) * libpng: LIBPNG heap buffer overflow (CVE-2025-65018) Bug Fix(es): * When using a P11SecretKey for both signing and encryption in FIPS mode, the FIPS PKCS11 provider would fail with a CKR_ATTRIBUTE_VALUE_INVALID error. This was due to the default configuration not applying the CKA_ENCRYPT=true attribute to the key. The configuration in this release is updated to include this attribute. (AlmaLinux-142865, AlmaLinux-142866, AlmaLinux-142867, AlmaLinux-142868, AlmaLinux-142869, AlmaLinux-142870, AlmaLinux-142871, AlmaLinux-142872, AlmaLinux-142873, AlmaLinux-142874) 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.
