> Right now, any Message instance used to call any log method are simply sent as they are.
> Instead, the {{Throwable}} must be transformed into a {{ThrowableProxy}}. Custom {{Message}} implementations must be transformed into one of log4j's standard message implementations and care must be taken to convert the {{Parameters}} {{Object[]}} into {{String[]}} before the message is serialized.
> Otherwise, deserialization will fail if a custom {{Throwable}}, custom {{Message}} or custom parameter is not contained in the classpath of the application receiving the serialized {{LogEvent}}.
> I found those issues while implementing the circumvention for [Apache Commons statement to widespread Java object de-serialisation vulnerability|https://blogs.apache.org/foundation/entry/apache_commons_statement_to_widespread] in [Lilith|http://lilithapp.com].
