It's worth noting that CVE-2019-17571 doesn't impact ActiveMQ 5.x since it
doesn't use the Log4j SocketServer. See more here [1]. Also, CVE-2021-4104
only affects Log4j 1.2 when it is specifically configured to use the
JMSAppender (which is not enabled by default). In my opinion it would be
quite odd to configure the logging for ActiveMQ to use the JMSAppender so
your customer probably has nothing to worry about here.

JB is managing the release of 5.17.0. I'm not sure how confident he is that
it will be done by the end of the month.
