My talk will be...
But some people seem to notice when news is shared of a recording being made available, so here you go.:-) These are 4 sessions I've done in Jan 2024 and Dec 2023.
So I'll be presenting a talk on this topic, online this Thursday, at noon US Eastern, on the CFMeetup youtube livestream (which will be recorded).

And as important, if you may have skipped some Java updates before this one, there are some additional points to consider regarding some potentially important changes in updates you may be skipping.
In this post, I cover several topics in both those areas.
TLDR: The new updates are 1.8.0_401 (aka 8u401), 11.0.22, 17.0.10, and 21.0.2 respectively). For more on each of them, including what changed and the security fixes they each contain (including their CVE scores regarding urgency of concerns), see the Oracle resources I list below. Oracle calls them "critical patch updates" (yep, CPU), but they are in fact scheduled quarterly updates, so that "critical" nomenclature may sometimes be a bit overstated. Again, more details below. And as is generally the case with these Java updates, most of them have the same changes and fixes across the four JVM versions, though not always.
For some folks, that's all they need to hear. For others, read on.
