The log4j vulnerability and TeX

Sun, 19 Dec 2021 22:09:03 +0000

Regarding the recently-discovered log4j vulnerability, the only program to our knowledge in TeX Live which uses the Log4j class is the arara utility; further, arara is not directly impacted by this issue, as explained in this Arch Linux issue. Nevertheless, arara has been updated in TL (and on CTAN, and upstream), and is available through normal update mechanisms. No program in TeX calls arara internally. The TeX engines (TeX, pdfTeX, XeTeX, LuaTeX, etc.), are completely unaffected. LaTeX and other TeX formats are also completely unaffected.
