;) mostly because my last two days were completely taken up with client and

A blog article on Open Source software and commercial users, worth reading:

Hi Marc,

I was waiting for that question ;)

All fine, BaseX uses a custom logger, as well as Jetty does [1,2].

You may need to check your setup, though, if you use Tomcat as web
server or any additional search index applications like Solr or
Elasticsearch. ES is only susceptible to information leak, not remote
code execution [3].

Hope this helps,
Christian

Does Basex (9.x or 8.x) use Log4j in any of its components?
If not, should one still worry about the JRE?
