Azul launches free JVM vulnerability scanner to help teams find unpatched Java runtimes
Summary
Azul Systems has launched a free JVM vulnerability risk assessment tool for DevOps and SecOps teams. The tool scans networks to discover JVM instances—including embedded and unmanaged runtimes often missed by standard asset discovery tools—and produces a prioritized remediation roadmap aligned with the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerability catalog and the U.S. National Vulnerability Database. Azul also promotes its Azul Core OpenJDK distribution, which ships only security fixes without new features or bundled bug patches, positioning it as a lower-risk alternative for long-running Java systems. The free scan serves as lead generation for Azul Core subscriptions.
