Hi @jy ,

in order to mitigate that security issue you should disable JMSAppender as specified in the linked article.

Btw, Atlassian says that they forked log4j 1.2.17 (in 1.2.17-atlassian-3) in order to delete the code affected. Therefore, JIRA is not vulnerable to CVE-2019-17571.

Please take a look to the following issue https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-62838

Hope this helps,

Fabio
