Chen Zhaojun of Alibaba recently discovered a critical vulnerability in Apache Log4j that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Our products are not affected by this. The ICR routers, R-SeeNet, WA/VPN and WA/DMP Gen2 do not include the Log4j utility and thus are not vulnerable. Should you have more questions, please contact your Regional Support.
