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.
