Taking a closer look
ls -al $( find . | grep java.security )
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20K Dec 17 09:02
./java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0/jre/lib/security/java.security
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21K Jan 22 09:34
./java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0/jre/lib/security/java.security.rpmnew
that appears to demonstrate that existing 'java.security' IS preserved (any new
installed java.security is installed as *.rpmnew ?)
Iiuc, that'll be true only as long as we're within the "1.8.0" namespace, given
ls -al

As soon as 1.8.0 updates to > 1.8.0, then changes to the java.security file
will need to remade. Is that correct?
If so, what's the namespace policy? will the dirnames stay at *1.8.0* for the
entire 1.8.x branch future?
As for Oracle, that's of course, rpm-installed from their site. At first
glance, the as-shipped 'java.security' file is identical to that of
openjdk1.8's.
Fwiw, this is all a bit muddled anyway as
(1) current opensuse's distro-shipped bouncycastle pkg is INCOMPATIBLE with jdk
1.8.x (both openjdk & Oracle) anyway
(https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=914685),
(2) BC's not Oracle/Sun-signed, so it can't be persistently added to Oracle's
lib/ext install path -- only to OpenJDK's.
