Better Banking of Sounds - JDK-8295687: Better BMP bounds ## Major Changes
### JDK-8295687: Better BMP bounds Loading a linked ICC profile within a BMP
image is now disabled by default. To re-enable it, set the new system property
`sun.imageio.bmp.enabledLinkedProfiles` to `true`. This new property replaces
the old property, `sun.imageio.plugins.bmp.disableLinkedProfiles`. ###
JDK-8293742: Better Banking of Sounds Previously, the SoundbankReader
implementation, `com.sun.media.sound.JARSoundbankReader`, would download a JAR
soundbank from a URL. This behaviour is now disabled by default. To re-enable
it, set the new system property `jdk.sound.jarsoundbank` to `true`. ###
[JDK-8282730](  https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8282730): New Implementation
Note for LoginModule on Removing Null from a Principals or Credentials Set Back
in OpenJDK 9, [JDK-8015081](  https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8015081) changed
the `Set` implementation used to hold principals and credentials so that it
rejected `null` values. Attempts to call `add(null)`, `contains(null)` or
`remove(null)` were changed to throw a `NullPointerException`. However, the
`logout()` methods in the `LoginModule` implementations within the JDK were not
updated to check for `null` values, which may occur in the event of a failed
login. As a result, a `logout()` call may throw a `NullPointerException`. The
`LoginModule` implementations have now been updated with such checks and an
implementation note added to the specification to suggest that the same change
is made in third party modules. Developers of third party modules are advised
to verify that their `logout()` method does not throw a `NullPointerException`.
### JDK-8287411: Enhance DTLS performance The JDK now exchanges DTLS cookies
for all handshakes, new and resumed. The previous behaviour can be re-enabled by
setting the new system property `jdk.tls.enableDtlsResumeCookie` to `false`.
### FIPS Changes Previous releases hardcoded the NSS database password used in
FIPS mode to be the empty string, preventing the use of databases which had
another PIN set. This release now allows both the database location and its PIN
to be configured using the properties `fips.nssdb.path` and `fips.nssdb.pin`
respectively. The properties can be set either permanently in the
`java.security` file or at runtime using the `-Dfips.nssdb.path` or
`-Dfips.nssdb.pin` arguments to the JVM. The default values of both remain as
before.
