Rapid Response to the Log4j CVE & Important System Design to Limit Potential Impact Article By George NychisResponse By Engineering, SRE, and Customer Success Introduction Though many of our readers will already be aware of this topic and the severity of it, we present Soroco’s response with its engineering team on the Log4j vulnerability. In this post we will describe how we learned of the vulnerability and provided rapid response to it within 24 hours and patched it across our production environments. Additionally, how our system architecture ensured that any impact of the vulnerability would be isolated due to container technology. After significant analysis of our product’s usage, we were not able to find any known impact of the Log4j vulnerability. Background On December 9th, 2021 the Log4j vulnerability was announced and recorded as CVE-2021-4422 with the highest score of 10. It allowed remote code execution which meant that an attacker could potentially execute a series of commands on a server where information was processed with the Log4j library. Those commands could, for example, read information on the server, modify information, delete data, or even attempt to extract sensitive information from it. If the reader wants a technical explanation of the vulnerability, we recommend the following post. What made this announced vulnerability so severe and the reaction to it so substantial was that it was “zero-day” and used so widely across the industry. Zero-day referred to attackers being aware of it before or at the same time as security researchers without a known patch. Its wide use across the industry included all major cloud services such as Apple, Google, Microsoft, Cloudflare, and Twitter. Additionally, around 32% of the Fortune 500 is reported to use ElasticSearch which leverages Log4j which likely contributed to the large response. How Soroco’s System Architecture Minimized Any Potential Impact Soroco’s use of Log4j was not direct, but rather indirect
