Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.


1) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2021-4104)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data in JMSAppender, when the attacker has write access to the Log4j configuration. The attacker can provide TopicBindingName and TopicConnectionFactoryBindingName configurations causing JMSAppender to perform JNDI requests that result in remote code execution.

Note this issue only affects Log4j 1.2 when specifically configured to use JMSAppender, which is not the default.


Remediation

Install update from vendor's website.
