Carter Kozak commented on LOG4J2-3478:
--------------------------------------
I don't believe we have a base64 lookup in log4j2. If we did, the linked code
should decode as expected.
> Base64 lookup doesn't work with system property substitution

> Key: LOG4J2-3478
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3478
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: oskarryn
> Priority: Minor
>
> Base64 encoded system property doesn't work, e.g.
> {code:java}
> property.token = ${base64:${sys:some.encoded.token}}
> {code}
> fails (silently) and is valued literally, without any expansion. The expected
> behavior is that the _some.encoded.token_ system property would be looked up
> and then decoded by base64 lookup.
> If this kind of "nesting" should be considered a feature please comment and
> I'll change the type.
