Steps

This section provides instructions on how to update OpenJDK used in IBM InfoSphere Identity Insight (II) 10.0.0.0 to OpenJDK 17.0.13.0.

Download OpenJDK 17.0.13.0 for the desired platform.
Stop Liberty Server.
    Windows
    <ii_install_dir>\bin\stopIIServer.bat
    Linux/AIX
    <ii_install_dir>/bin/stopIIServer
Backup the java directory in the <ii_install_dir> by renaming it.
- Find out what version of the current java in <ii_install_dir>.
  Windows
  <ii_instal_dir>\java\bin\java -version
  Linux/AIX
  <ii_install_dir>/java/bin/java -version
- Rename the java directory to java_<version>, substitute <version> with the version number of the current java.
  Windows
  move <ii_install_dir>\java <ii_install_dir>\java_<version>
  Linux/AIX
  mv <ii_install_dir>/java <ii_install_dir>/java_<version>
Extract the downloaded file under <ii_install_dir>. A 'jdk-17.0.13+11' is placed under <ii_install_dir>.
Rename 'jdk-17.0.13+11' to 'java'.
Windows
move <ii_install_dir>\jdk-17.0.13+11 <ii_install_dir>\java
Linux/AIX
mv <ii_install_dir>/jdk-17.0.13+11 <ii_instal_dir>/java
If Liberty Server connects to DB2 database in SSL, add sslVersion parameter in db.xml file.
     <dataSource id="DefaultDataSource" jndiName="jdbc/pipeline" type="javax.sql.DataSource">
           <jdbcDriver libraryRef="DB2Lib"/>
           <properties.db2.jcc databaseName="dbName"
             serverName="dbHost"
             user="db2User"
             password="dbUserPwd"
             portNumber="dbPort"
             sslVersion="TLSv1.2"
             ssLConnection="true" />
     </dataSource>
Verify the updated Java is used in Identity Insight.
- Restart Liberty Server.
  Windows
  <ii_install_dir>\bin\startIIServer.bat
  Linux/AIX
  <ii_install_dir>/bin/startIIServer
- View <ii_install_dir>/wlp/usr/servers/iiServer/logs/messages.log. Java used by Liberty Server is shown at the beginning of the file.

Disclaimer

According to the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST), the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is an "industry open standard designed to convey vulnerability severity and help to determine urgency and priority of response." IBM PROVIDES THE CVSS SCORES ""AS IS"" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY. In addition to other efforts to address potential vulnerabilities, IBM periodically updates the record of components contained in our product offerings. As part of that effort, if IBM identifies previously unidentified packages in a product/service inventory, we address relevant vulnerabilities regardless of CVE date. Inclusion of an older CVEID does not demonstrate that the referenced product has been used by IBM since that date, nor that IBM was aware of a vulnerability as of that date. We are making clients aware of relevant vulnerabilities as we become aware of them. "Affected Products and Versions" referenced in IBM Security Bulletins are intended to be only products and versions that are supported by IBM and have not passed their end-of-support or warranty date. Thus, failure to reference unsupported or extended-support products and versions in this Security Bulletin does not constitute a determination by IBM that they are unaffected by the vulnerability. Reference to one or more unsupported versions in this Security Bulletin shall not create an obligation for IBM to provide fixes for any unsupported or extended-support products or versions.
