Log4j 1.x:

  • CVE-2019-17571

Description:

The Log4j 2.x component is not used in FlexNet Connect Client or FlexNet Connect Back-Office 2017 R3, hence there is no impact from CVE-2021-45105, CVE-2021-45046, or CVE-2021-44228.    

There is no impact from CVE-2021-4104 or CVE-2019-17571 on FlexNet Connect Client or FlexNet Connect Back-Office 2017 R3 since the source code does not use any of the following:

  • SocketAppender

  • SMTPAppender
  • JMSAppender

which are the cause of the Log4j 1.x vulnerabilities mentioned above.
