RELEASE NOTES

security-libs/java.security

Issue Description
JDK-8245654

The following root certificate has been added to the cacerts truststore: ` + Certigna (Dhimyotis) + certignaca DN: CN=Certigna, O=Dhimyotis, C=FR `


core-libs/java.io

Issue Description
JDK-8208077

`File::listRoots` Changed to Return All Available Drives on Windows


The behavior of the method java.io.File.listRoots() on Microsoft Windows has changed in this release so that the returned array includes a File object for all available disk drives. This differs from the behavior in JDK 10 to JDK 20, where this method filtered out disk drives that were not accessible or did not have media present. This change avoids performance issues observed in the previous releases and also ensures that the method is consistent with the root directories in the iteration returned by FileSystem.getDefault().getRootDirectories().
