Eclipse and log4j2 vulnerability (CVE-2021-44228)

Project Version Status Comment
Passage <= 2.2.0 Vulnerable The risk of exposure due to the tooling support in an IDE is negligible. Tools can be updated to the 2.2.1 release and runtimes should be upgraded to the 2.2.1 release. Older versions of Passage also work with log4j >= 2.15. See Passage Downloads for site details.
Eclipse Packaging Project (Eclipse IDE for ...) *.*.* Not Vulnerable / Vulnerable All packages available from Eclipse Downloads are not vulnerable, except for the Eclipse IDE for RCP and RAP Developers which contain Passage. Even for packages containing Passage, the risk of exposure due to the tooling support in an IDE is negligible. Adding the site https://download.eclipse.org/passage/updates/release/2.2.1/ to Window → Preferences → Install/Update → Available Sites and using Help → Check for Updates can be used to upgrade the version of Passage and thereby replace the vulnerable version of log4j2.
Eclipse Installer *.*.* Not Vulnerable Does not use log4j. The catalogs used by the installer for installing the Eclipse Packaging Project's products are dynamically loaded and have been updated such that installing any version of the Eclipse IDE for RCP and RAP Developers will install Passage 2.2.1 with the repaired version of log4j2, i.e., >= 2.15.
Eclipse SDK *.*.* Not Vulnerable Eclipse SDK does not use log4j
JGit 1.0-5.13.0,6.0.0 Not Vulnerable org.eclipse.jgit.pgm uses log4j 1.2.15
EGit 1.0-5.13.0,6.0.0 Not Vulnerable EGit does not use log4j
