Hello!
Thank you very much for providing the geoserver.war: log4j-1.2.17.norce.jar. I have integrated into geoserver and ran a OWASP dependency check ( https://jeremylong.github.io/DependencyCheck/dependency-check-cli/index.html <https://jeremylong.github.io/DependencyCheck/dependency-check-cli/index.html>)

The library is still classified as critical:
geoserver.war: log4j-1.2.17.norce.jar cpe:2.3:a:apache:log4j:1.2.17:*:*:*:*:*:*:* pkg:maven/log4j/log4j@1.2.17-norce CRITICAL 2 Highest 27

Do you think it is possible and a good idea to register the library as "safe" in the central database?

No, this is not a new release but the same release with some files removed and a way of preventing people from shooting themselves in the foot because they can no longer configure the culprit appenders.

After inspection of the new jar file you can add a suppression for false positives like

<suppress>
    <notes>
        <![CDATA[

                 CVE-2019-17571 log4j Socket Server
                 CVE-2020-9488 log4j SMTP appender
                 CVE-2021-4104 log4j JMSAppender
        ]]>
    </notes>
    <gav regex="true">^log4j:log4j:1\.2\.17$</gav>
