The Log4j vulnerability, also called Log4Shell, is a software vulnerability found in the Apache Log4j logging framework. It is a zero-day, remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability that allows attackers to run malicious code and control systems running unpatched versions of Log4j.
What is the Log4j vulnerability? The Log4j vulnerability, also known as Log4Shell, is a critical vulnerability discovered in the Apache Log4j logging library in November 2021. Log4Shell essentially grants hackers total control of devices running unpatched versions of Log4j.
On December 9th, 2021, the world was made aware of the single, biggest, most critical vulnerability as CVE-2021-44228, affecting the java based logging utility log4j.

Attackers were able to take advantage of a functionality in Log4j that processed special expressions inside log messages, notably JNDI (Java Naming and Directory Interface) lookups, thanks to the...
The Log4j exploit began as a single vulnerability, but it became a series of issues involving Log4j and the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) interface, which is the root cause of the exploit.
Log4Shell is a critical zero-day vulnerability (CVE-2021-44228) in Log4j that was uncovered in December 2021. It allows attackers to execute arbitrary code remotely on affected systems.
Last week, a vulnerability was found in Log4j, an open-source logging library commonly used by apps and services across the internet. If left unfixed, attackers can break into systems, steal...
Used by millions of Java apps, Log4j is a standard logging library that suddenly became an open door for attackers worldwide. Why should you care? Whether you’re running servers, IoT devices, or cloud apps — Log4j is probably inside your stack.
Log4jVulnerability is a vulnerability in the widely used Log4j library. This vulnerability is a critical security issue that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code. In particular, it occurs by manipulating JNDI (Java Naming and Directory Interface) and LDAP references.
