Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.705024
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DSA-5024-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'apache-log4j2' package(s) announced via the DSA-5024-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'apache-log4j2' package(s) announced via the DSA-5024-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was found that Apache Log4j2, a Logging Framework for Java, did not protect from uncontrolled recursion from self-referential lookups. When the logging configuration uses a non-default Pattern Layout with a Context Lookup (for example, $${ctx:loginId}), attackers with control over Thread Context Map (MDC) input data can craft malicious input data that contains a recursive lookup, resulting in a denial of service.

For the oldstable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in version 2.17.0-1~
deb10u1.

For the stable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed in version 2.17.0-1~
deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your apache-log4j2 packages.

For the detailed security status of apache-log4j2 please refer to its security tracker page at: [link moved to references]

Affected Software/OS:
'apache-log4j2' package(s) on Debian 10, Debian 11.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
