JDK 8u261, in the July 2020 CPU, was built with Visual Studio 2017.

With the release of the January 2021 CPU, JDK 7u291 will move to Visual Studio 2017.

Before this change, JDKJRE implementations used and shipped the Microsoft Visual C 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86x64) that included MSVCR100.dll ab.

Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 uses a different set of librariesDLLs.

To relieve this, a new security property, jdk.disabled.namedCurves, is implemented that can list the named curves common to all of the disabledAlgorithms properties.

Java 7.0 8.0 Full Property Name

To use the new property in the disabledAlgorithms properties, precede the full property name with the keyword include.

Users can still add individual named curves to disabledAlgorithms properties separate from this new property.

No other properties can be included in the disabledAlgorithms properties.

To restore one or more curves, remove the specific named curve(s) from the jdk.disabled.namedCurves property.

The default value of the system property is 32768 (32 kilobytes).
