CVE-2022-23305
Published on: 01/18/2022 12:00:00 AM UTC
Last Modified on: 02/24/2023 03:30:00 PM UTC
Certain versions of Log4j from Apache contain the following vulnerability:
By design, the JDBCAppender in Log4j 1.2.x accepts an SQL statement as a configuration parameter where the values to be inserted are converters from PatternLayout. The message converter, %m, is likely to always be included. This allows attackers to manipulate the SQL by entering crafted strings into input fields or headers of an application that are logged allowing unintended SQL queries to be executed. Note this issue only affects Log4j 1.x when specifically configured to use the JDBCAppender, which is not the default. Beginning in version 2.0-beta8, the JDBCAppender was re-introduced with proper support for parameterized SQL queries and further customization over the columns written to in logs. Apache Log4j 1.2 reached end of life in August 2015. Users should upgrade to Log4j 2 as it addresses numerous other issues from the previous versions.
- CVE-2022-23305 has been assigned by
[email protected] to track the vulnerability - currently rated as CRITICAL severity. - Affected Vendor/Software: Apache Software Foundation - Apache Log4j 1.x version >= 1.2.1
- Affected Vendor/Software: Apache Software Foundation - Apache Log4j 1.x version < 2.0-alpha1
Vulnerability Patch/Work Around
- Users should upgrade to Log4j 2 or remove usage of the JDBCAppender from their configurations.
