There's no Java for / in Spark, but, yes I can't see a scenario where a minor JVM update would break Spark. Not 100% impossible - I'm thinking of obscure timezone definition updates, changes to supported crypto algorithms, etc. But that should be extremely rare. I think we'd always recommend the latest maintenance release and I think our test envs have a pretty new Java 8, 11, etc.
