[GitHub] [helix] brentwritescode opened a new issue #1921: Consider upgrading Log4J to version 2.16.x from Log4J 1.x to avoid known vulnerabilities

brentwritescode opened a new issue #1921:
URL: https://github.com/apache/helix/issues/1921


   The past week has demonstrated some particularly problematic bugs with the Log4J project.  While the most pressing vulnerability is with Log4j 2.x (2.0 through 2.14) that has multiple RCE vulnerabilities (see https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-44228), the Log4J 1.2.x variant currently in use by Apache Helix has been End-of-Life since 2015 (https://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/) and has other known security vulnerabilities (e.g. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-17571).  This comment from the Log4J project is worth a read: https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/pull/608#issuecomment-990494126.
   
   It seems like the most prudent course of action would be to upgrade the Apache Helix project to Log4J version 2.16.x that was released this week (https://lists.apache.org/thread/d6v4r6nosxysyq9rvnr779336yf0woz4) to directly address these vulnerabilities.
