I briefly thought about tracing the cookie. That worked fine, thanks!

The download host is on akamai so you might as well use plain http
(instead of disabling TLS checks). The <url> for JDK8 is (at this
time): http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jce/8/jce_policy-8.zip
I also could leave out disabling cookies (wget doesn't store any by
default), making the whole command:

wget --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jce/8/jce_policy-8.zip

Thanks for sharing,
