Fix for Log4J exploit has its own vulnerabilities
Open-source developers released a patch for a severe vulnerability in Apache's Log4J, and the fix has been discovered to have two vulnerabilities of its own.
According to a report from Ars Technica, the fix allowed attackers to execute denial-of-service attacks, making it easy to take vulnerable services offline until they reboot their servers.
