Description
Discussed in https://github.com/microsoft/openjdk/discussions/672
Originally posted by bambooflower227 February 26, 2026
When I asked the systems department to install "microsoft-jdk-21.0.9-windows-x64.zip", they told me, "There is a risk because it is not code signed. Ask the vendor to issue a code signature."
Is it possible to request that the following file, which is created during installation, be code signed?
C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\openjdk-25.0.1_windows-x64_bin\jdk-25.0.1\lib\jrt-fs.jar
NOTE: We will need to review the status of other jars and the impact of this signing on other functionality (e.g., Leyden's AOT cache).
