Description Hans de Graaff gentoo-dev Security 2021-12-12 07:45:26 UTC
$ equery files app-misc/elasticsearch | grep log4j /etc/elasticsearch/log4j2.properties
/usr/share/elasticsearch/lib/log4j-1.2-api-2.11.1.jar
/usr/share/elasticsearch/lib/log4j-api-2.11.1.jar
/usr/share/elasticsearch/lib/log4j-core-2.11.1.jar

All log4j 2.x versions below 2.15.0 are vulnerable to log4shell.

We could mitigate this on our side by setting 

-Dlog4j2.formatMsgNoLookups=true

in the jvm.options file while we wait for any upstream information on this.
Comment 1 John Helmert III archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-12-12 20:12:33 UTC
Thanks for reporting! Note that this doesn't actually seem to be vulnerable to remote code execution according to URL:

"Elasticsearch is not susceptible to remote code execution with this vulnerability due to our use of the Java Security Manager, however we are making a fix available for an information leakage attack also associated with this vulnerability and recommend that all customers apply the configuration."

"Users may upgrade to Elasticsearch 6.8.21 or 7.16.1 once they are released"
