Build

How to use

Usage

Logpresso CVE-2021-44228 Vulnerability Scanner 1.6.3 (2021-12-16)
Usage: log4j2-scan [--fix] target_path

--fix
        Backup original file and remove JndiLookup.class from JAR recursively.
--force-fix
        Do not prompt confirmation. Don't use this option unless you know what you are doing.
--debug
        Print exception stacktrace for debugging.
--trace
        Print all directories and files while scanning.
--silent
        Do not print anything until scan is completed.
--scan-zip
        Scan also .zip extension files. This option may slow down scanning.
--no-symlink
        Do not detect symlink as vulnerable file.
--exclude [path_prefix]
        Exclude specified paths. You can specify multiple --exclude [path_prefix] pairs
--exclude-config [file_path]
        Specify exclude path list in text file. Paths should be separated by new line. Prepend # for comment.
--exclude-pattern [pattern]
        Exclude specified paths by pattern. You can specify multiple --exclude-pattern [pattern] pairs (non regex)
--all-drives
        Scan all drives on Windows
--drives c,d
        Scan specified drives on Windows. Spaces are not allowed here.
--report-csv
        Generate log4j2_scan_report_yyyyMMdd_HHmmss.csv in working directory
--report-path
        Specify report output path.

On Windows

log4j2-scan [--fix] target_path

On Linux

./log4j2-scan [--fix] target_path

On UNIX (AIX, Solaris, and so on)

java -jar logpresso-log4j2-scan-1.6.3.jar [--fix] target_path

If you add --fix option, this program will copy vulnerable original JAR file to .bak file, and create new JAR file without org/apache/logging/log4j/core/lookup/JndiLookup.class entry. In most environments, JNDI lookup feature will not be used. However, you must use this option at your own risk. It is necessary to shutdown any running JVM process before applying patch. Start affected JVM process after fix.

If you want to automate patch job, use --force-fix option. With this option, this program will no longer prompt for confirmation.

(mitigated) tag will be displayed if org/apache/logging/log4j/core/lookup/JndiLookup.class entry is removed from JAR file.

If you add --trace option, this program will print all visited directories and files. Use this option only for debugging.

How it works

Run in 5 steps:

  1. Find all .jar, .war, .ear, .aar files recursively.
  2. Find META-INF/maven/org.apache.logging.log4j/log4j-core/pom.properties entry from JAR file.
  3. Read groupId, artifactId, and version.
  4. Compare log4j2 version and print vulnerable version.
  5. If --fix option is used, backup vulnerable file and patch it.
    • For example, original vulnerable.jar is copied to vulnerable.jar.bak
