I'm pleased to announce the release of the java-buildpack, version 4.44. This release focuses on dependency updates, primarily that fix the Apache Log4j2 vulnerability, CVE-2021-44228, in dependencies used by the Java buildpack.

  • Fixed case in networkzone query parameter (@arthfl via #915)
  • In particular, the following dependencies were known to be vulnerable to CVE-2021-44228 & have been patched in this release:
    • AppDynamics Java Agent
    • Elastic APM Java Agent
    • New Relic Java Agent
    • Geode Tomcat Session Store

If you are using an online version of the Java buildpack you do not strictly need this update, as the online buildpack will always pick the latest version of dependencies.

For a more detailed look at the changes in 4.44, please take a look at the commit log. The packaged version of the buildpack, suitable for use with create-buildpack and update-buildpack, can be found attached to this release.

Dependency Notes

  • The buildpack is shipping Geode Tomcat Session Store 1.13.4, which uses Apache Geode 1.13.5 and contains a fix for the Apache Log4j2 vulnerability, CVE-2021-44228.
  • This version of the buildpack should not be used as it only contains partial fixes for the Log4j2 vulnerabilities. This version includes patches for CVE-2021-44228 for affected 3rd party dependencies (the buildpack itself is not impacted at all) but it does not include patches for CVE-2021-45046. You need version 4.45 of the Java buildpack to be completely patched.
