For what it's worth, I'm seeing IT depts not wanting to track exceptions to the rule (such as solr) and requiring the library upgrades period.

Earlier today I tried a jar upgrade from 2.11.0 to 2.17.0 on Solr 7.5.0.  It was successful.  I made sure that the admin UI logging tab still worked, by asking Solr to do a query that returned an error response.

Just now, I tried the same with Solr 7.4.0, which includes log4j 2.11.0 just like 7.5.0 does.  That worked too.

When this problem first surfaced, I upgraded log4j on my own install of Solr 8.11.0 from 7.14.1 and it still works.  I have seen a report from someone saying that they upgraded from 2.13.0 and that also worked.  I don't recall the Solr version they had.

So nice that the log4j team has kept the API stable, so any vulnerable Solr version can simply replace the log4j jars with a newer version and know that they have fixed the problem.

Would there be any interest in a script to automate the upgrade process?  Would also need to see if there is a secure way to validate file hashes.

Thanks,
Shawn
