There is no fixed version for eclipse/openj9.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Missing Initialization of Resource. In Eclipse Openj9 to version 0.25.0, usage of the jdk.internal.reflect.ConstantPool API causes the JVM in some cases to pre-resolve certain constant pool entries. This allows a user to call static methods or access static members without running the class initialization method, and may allow a user to observe uninitialized values.
