Hi Micheal, welcome, and thank you for your contribution!
I opened a bug id for you to track this: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8280498 . I can sponsor this patch for you. You need one reviewer, I think. I don't have the cycles right now to think this through. I cc core-libs dev since this is a networking issue and one of their tests.
