Eclipse Vert.x and Log4j 2 CVE-2021-44228

A re­cent CVE-2021-44228 has been dis­closed that af­fects the Log4j 2 li­brary.

The Vert.x project can op­tion­ally use this li­brary for log­ging but does not ship or di­rectly de­pends on this li­brary and there­fore is not af­fected by this CVE.

In prac­tice an ap­pli­ca­tion using Vert.x might use it but needs to ex­plic­itly de­pend on this li­brary, in such case the Log4j 2 de­pen­dency ver­sion must be up­graded to 2.15.0 or later.

The Vert.x team will pro­vide this week Vert.x patch re­leases that up­date the op­tional or test de­pen­den­cies of Log4j 2:

  • Vert.x 4.2.2 which was ex­pected to be de­liv­ered soon and con­tains other bug fixes
  • Vert.x 4.1.7 the pre­vi­ous sta­ble branch
  • Vert.x 3.9.11 the last sta­ble branch of Vert.x 3 will is sup­ported until end of 2022
