-----------------------------------
Summary: 2.17 has reverted LOG4J-2972 fix in AppenderControl but
change not in history
Key: LOG4J2-3286
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3286
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Appenders
Affects Versions: 2.17.0
Environment: Windows desktop running unit tests with log4j 2.17
Reporter: Ben Thurley
Upgrading to 2.17 to fix the slew of vulnerabilities has resulted in a change
to error handling in the logs.
Specifically in the class:
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.AppenderControl
There is a method called tryCallAppender() which as of 2.14.1 had been set to
catch Exception. Looking at the history I can see no further changes to revert
this to handling Throwable, however, comparing the source for 2.16. and 2.17
this is exactly what has changed.
I don't believe this change should have reverted and if it should then why
isn't there a commit for it in the history?
