It was quickly found that the initial patch was insufficient, and additional CVEs (CVE-2021-45046 and CVE-2021-44832) followed. 10 These have been fixed in release `2.17.1`. This release of Vitess, `v12.0.2`, uses a version of Log4j below `2.17.1`, for this reason, we encourage you to use version `v12.0.3` instead, to benefit from the vulnerability patches. 11 12 ------------ 13 ## Changelog 14 15 ### Dependabot 16 #### Java 17 * build(deps): bump log4j-core from 2.15.0 to 2.16.0 in /java #9396 18 19 20 The release includes 2 commits (excluding merges) 21 22 Thanks to all our contributors: @frouioui
