Perhaps I'm missing the bigger problem here. Certainly not having a java.security file is sub-optimal and I suspect very very rare, but throwing exceptions that breaks existing apps seems like a big hammer and would now need a property added to override Doing this change for jdk-dev only I could see, but as the CSR points toward backporting, that seems more risky ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/9747
