Hi, The Messaging API for Java (jcsmp) 10.12.1 has reference to commons-logging-1.2 which in turn uses log4j 1.2.17, will there be fix for this?Hi there, the CVE-2021-44228 vulnerability does not affect this version of log4j (v1.2.17) therefore no fix is required. The reference in the API pom file to log4j is only in test scope which is used in-house in tests and is not part of the API.
