    Summary: Security update for log4j

    Details: This update for log4j fixes the following issue: CVE-2021-44228: The previously published fix by upstream turned out to be incomplete. Therefore, upstream has recommended disabling JNDI support in log4j by default to be completely sure that this vulnerability cannot be exploited. This update implements that recommendation and disables JNDI support by default. [bsc#1193611, CVE-2021-44228] CVE-2021-45046: A Thread Context Message Pattern and Context Lookup Pattern vulnerable to a denial of service attack is also fixed by disabling JNDI support by default (bsc#1193743)
