This is a know issue within Jline (https://github.com/jline/jline3/issues/533) and seems to be fixed in Jline 3.15.0 https://github.com/jline/jline3/issues/532.
We should consider upgrading Jline to fix this issue.

The same issue is noted on the Graal known issues (https://www.graalvm.org/release-notes/known-issues), but I couldn't find anything within the OpenJDK bug tracker.
Comments
Was fixed by upgrade to 3.20.0 under JDK-8273682.
