TITLE

Red Hat Security Advisory 2021-5138-04

DESCRIPTION

Apache Log4j2 2.0-beta9 through 2.15.0 (excluding security releases 2.12.2, 2.12.3, and 2.3.1) JNDI features used in configuration, log messages, and parameters do not protect against attacker controlled LDAP and other JNDI related endpoints. An attacker who can control log messages or log message parameters can execute arbitrary code loaded from LDAP servers when message lookup substitution is enabled. From log4j 2.15.0, this behavior has been disabled by default. From version 2.16.0 (along with 2.12.2, 2.12.3, and 2.3.1), this functionality has been completely removed. Note that this vulnerability is specific to log4j-core and does not affect log4net, log4cxx, or other Apache Logging Services projects. Summary: An update is now available for OpenShift Logging 5.3. Solution: For OpenShift Container Platform 4.9 see the following documentation, which will be updated shortly for this release, for important instructions on how to upgrade your cluster and fully apply this errata update: https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.9/release_notes/ocp-4-9-release-notes.html For Red Hat OpenShift Logging 5.3, see the following instructions to apply this update: https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.9/logging/cluster-logging-upgrading.html 4.
