Description

https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-44228

Apache Log4j2 <=2.14.1 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. In previous releases (>2.10) this behavior can be mitigated by setting system property "log4j2.formatMsgNoLookups" to &#8220;true&#8221; or by removing the JndiLookup class from the classpath (example: zip -q -d log4j-core-*.jar org/apache/logging/log4j/core/lookup/JndiLookup.class). Java 8u121 (see https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/8u121-relnotes.html) protects against remote code execution by defaulting "com.sun.jndi.rmi.object.trustURLCodebase" and "com.sun.jndi.cosnaming.object.trustURLCodebase" to "false".

This Task will scan local filesystems for file names matching Log4j JAR files and save the results to {pathname of storage folder of client}\BPS-Scans\CVE-2021-44228.txt

Those results will be parsed by an Analysis to flag whether the vulernable versions, i.e. earlier than 2.15.0, appear to be present.

Thanks for the help Jason

Updated the scan to include log4j-core.jar files that do not specify version as part of the filename.
