Upgrade Amazon Corretto Java

In certain situations, a software scan may determine that a vulnerability can be solved by updating your version of Amazon Corretto Java.

Windows Update Instructions

The following sections describe the process for updating Amazon Corretto Java on Windows devices.

Windows DX Instructions

To update Amazon Corretto for Windows DX:

  1. Verify the current version of Java by running the following command in a Command Prompt window:

    "C:\Program Files\LogRhythm\Data Indexer\dependencies\jdk-11\bin\java" -version

Make note of the version before updating so that a successful update can be verified later.

  1. Download the latest version of Java 8 Windows x64 JRE ZIP from Amazon at the following link:
    Amazon Corretto Java 11 for Windows

  2. Stop all LogRhythm DX services via the Services window, or by running the following in an admin Command Prompt window:

    "C:\Program Files\LogRhythm\Data Indexer\tools\stop-all-services.bat"

  3. Locate the zip file downloaded in Step 2 in your Downloads folder, then right-click the file and select “Extract All…”

  4. Navigate to C:\Program Files\LogRhythm\Data Indexer\dependencies.

  5. Rename the existing jdk-11 folder to “jdk-11.bak”.

  6. Copy the folder that you extracted in step 4 into “jdk-11”
