Minecraft 1.8.7 Security Release

We have released a new version of Minecraft 1.8, 1.8.7, which is now available for download in your launcher. This release fixes a few reported security issues.

This version is fully compatible with all previous 1.8 versions, but it is still highly recommend to update to 1.8.7 as soon as possible for both players and servers.

Notable fixes:

• [Bug MC-80749] – Resource packs do not get cleaned up
• [Bug MC-80750] – Resource packs continue downloading after disconnect
• [Bug MC-80875] – Specific unicode character pair crashes tr_TR clients
• [Bug MC-81001] – Signs can cause crashes
