The Log4J issues are not fixed by 2.15.

I wish we had remained on Log4J 1. Hadoop 3 is still on 1, although I know
they have plans to upgrade. It does not seem advisable to use Log4J 2 at
all actually. Another option that does not include such a dangerous
reference/rewrite mechanism might be preferable.
