Paul Burrowes updated LOG4J2-1999:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
On line 166 HighlightConverter maps the level in the highlight  style option to a Level using the single-argument toLevel(). This defaults to {{DEBUG}} if the level is not found. It needs to use getLevel() so it can get a null return value to report errors
{code}
                final Level level = Level.toLevel(key);
{code}
should be 
{code}
                final Level level = Level.getLevel(key);
{code}

On line 166 HighlightConverter maps the level in the highlight  style option to a Level using the single-argument toLevel(). This defaults to {{DEBUG}} if the level is not found. It needs to use the two-argument toLevel() so it can get a null return value to report errors
{code}
                final Level level = Level.toLevel(key);
{code}
should be 
{code}
                final Level level = Level.toLevel(key, null);
