We recently patched our databases with the 11.2.0.4.190115 OJVM and PSU bundle.

Before the patch the JAVAVM component was at v 1.6.0_211 and after the patch it 
was at version 1.7.0_211

We would not expect a PSU to upgrade the version of Java installed in the 
database and nothing was mentioned in the release notes that this would happen. 
Has anyone else seen this?

Before:
SELECT dbms_java.get_ojvm_property(PROPSTRING=>'java.version') FROM dual;

DBMS_JAVA.GET_OJVM_PROPERTY(PROPSTRING=>'JAVA.VERSION')
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.6.0_211

After:
SELECT dbms_java.get_ojvm_property(PROPSTRING=>'java.version') FROM dual;

DBMS_JAVA.GET_OJVM_PROPERTY(PROPSTRING=>'JAVA.VERSION')
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.7.0_211

Thanks,
Mike Tefft
