Joern Huxhorn updated LOG4J2-1226: ---------------------------------- Description: Right now, any Message instance used to call any log method are simply sent as they are. Instead, the {{Throwable}} must be transformed into a {{ThrowableProxy}}. Custom {{Message}} implementations must be transformed into one of log4j's standard message implementations and care must be taken to convert the {{Parameters}} {{Object[]}} into {{String[]}} before the message is serialized. Otherwise, deserialization will fail if a custom {{Throwable}}, custom {{Message}} or custom parameter is not contained in the classpath of the application receiving the serialized {{LogEvent}}. I found those issues while implementing the circumvention for [Apache Commons statement to widespread Java object de-serialisation vulnerability|https://blogs.apache.org/foundation/entry/apache_commons_statement_to_widespread] in [Lilith|http://lilithapp.com]. > Message instances are simply serialized. They mustn't. > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: LOG4J2-1226 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1226 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: API > Affects Versions: 2.5 > Reporter: Joern Huxhorn > > Right now, any Message instance used to call any log method are simply sent > as they are. > Instead, the {{Throwable}} must be transformed into a {{ThrowableProxy}}. > Custom {{Message}} implementations must be transformed into one of log4j's > standard message implementations and care must be taken to convert the > {{Parameters}} {{Object[]}} into {{String[]}} before the message is > serialized. > Otherwise, deserialization will fail if a custom {{Throwable}}, custom > {{Message}} or custom parameter is not contained in the classpath of the > application receiving the serialized {{LogEvent}}. > I found those issues while implementing the circumvention for [Apache Commons > statement to widespread Java object de-serialisation > vulnerability|https://blogs.apache.org/foundation/entry/apache_commons_statement_to_widespread] > in [Lilith|http://lilithapp.com]. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-h...@logging.apache.org
