ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
I have checked Oracle JDK and JREs for Windows and Linux, both contain outdated zipfs.jar files. Presumably, this affects all operating systems and architectures.
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The Oracle distribution of OpenJDK 8 contains a very outdated version of zipfs.jar (the nio zip filesystem provider). This means that certain bug fixes like https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8028480 are not available when using Oracle JDK 8. The contents of the jar are at least 8 years old as it does not contain the changes made in https://github.com/openjdk/jdk8u/commit/d0ad457d9ee856bf8b34d7b66a81f75d6c0447db .
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
While this bug has no direct steps to reproduce, one of the side effects of the outdated zipfs.jar is a bug that can be reproduced with the steps at https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8028480 .
