Hi,

The fundamental issue is that Oracle does not officially designate
OpenJDK 25 as a long term support version with the support commitment.
They may deliver patches for Oracle build but not for the OpenJDK
upstream.

The JDK updates project[1] is providing the security updates, and it is
maintained by a team from multiple companies (Oracle, Red Hat, SAP)[2].
It follows Oracle Critical Patch update schedule. There is no set EOL
for the life of JDK 25 updates projects and if it sunsets before the
Resolute EOL, we will have to adjust our security release procedure:

1) Ensure that we have access to embargoed code for the current security 
release, or at least access to the security tracker so that we can easily 
identify CVE-related patches.
2) Evaluate and apply patches to our fork of JDK 25. 
3) Make a security release.
