'SSLHandshakeException: Received fatal alert: record_overflow

I am receiving the following error. Not sure what is causing this and how to fix this. This is happening on the server side which is using Netscalar for Load Balancing.

Solution 1:[1]

If you're on Java 11 or 12, then the reason is probably a TLSv1.3 bug in the JDK.

The workaround is to disable TLSv1.3:

-Djdk.tls.client.protocols="TLSv1,TLSv1.1,TLSv1.2"

You can also try the latest JDK 13 early access to see whether the issue has been solved.

Update Like Long Nguyen said, this is fixed in:

Solution 2:[2]

Fixed in:

There is no patch for JDK 12
