Hi.

 

As far as I understand, the security issue has been fixed so updating should be sufficient.

 

From the Logback page: “Fortunately, logback is unrelated to log4j 2.x and does not share its vulnerabilities.”

If I was cynical I might read that as “it probably has its own unique vulnerabilities which haven’t been found yet” ;)

 

Ultimately, like a lot of OSS, both projects seem to be maintained by a handful of core developers.

 

Cheers,

 

Matt

We were wondering if others had any recommendations on this. That is, should we continue using/migrating to log4j2 ( and hope the security issues are fixed ) or should we consider alternatives like logback etc. Any thoughts are appreciated.

 

Regards,

Murali
