VERY IMPORTANT

Last week information security media reported the discovery of the critical vulnerability CVE-2021-44228 in the Apache Log4j library (CVSS severity level 10 out of 10). The threat, also named Log4Shell or LogJam, is a Remote Code Execution (RCE) class vulnerability. If an attacker manages to exploit it on a vulnerable server, they gain the ability to execute arbitrary code and potentially take full control of the system. A publicly published Proof-of-Concept, as well as the vulnerability’s easy exploitability, make this situation particularly dangerous.
