Security Bulletin Summary Apache Log4j is used by IBM(R) QRadar Risk Manager to log system events. This bulletin provides a remediation to address the multiple Apache Log4j vulnerabilities (CVE-2021-44228 and CVE-2021-45046 ) by upgrading IBM(R) QRadar Risk Manager. Vulnerability Details CVEID: CVE-2021-44228 DESCRIPTION: Apache Log4j could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by the failure to protect against attacker controlled LDAP and other JNDI related endpoints by JNDI features. By sending a specially crafted code string, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to load arbitrary Java code on the server and take complete control of the system. Note: The vulnerability is also called Log4Shell or LogJam. CVSS Base score: 10 CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/ 214921 for the current score. CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H) CVEID: CVE-2021-45046 DESCRIPTION: Apache Log4j could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by an incomplete fix of CVE-2021-44228 in certain non-default configurations. A remote attacker with control over Thread Context Map (MDC) input data can craft malicious input data using a JNDI Lookup pattern to obtain sensitive information and execute arbitrary code on the system. CVSS Base score: 9 CVSS Temporal Score: See: https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/ 215195 for the current score.
