Indeed it does. 

On my LAN it says the openjdk version "1.8.0_171"machine its on is 
reachable but nothing else, internally or externally is. Yet ping can tag 
all the hosts I've tried it on. And, yes, InetAddress.getByName() 
successfully resolves these host names to the expected IP addresses.

This is with Java openjdk version "1.8.0_171" on Fedora 27 fully patched 
as of last Friday.
