Package        : apache-log4j2
Version        : 2.17.1-1~deb11u2
CVE ID         : CVE-2025-68161
Debian Bug     : 1123744

In Apache Log4j2, a Java Logging Framework, the Socket Appender does not
perform TLS hostname verification of the peer certificate, even when the
verifyHostName configuration attribute or the log4j2.sslVerifyHostName
system property is set to true. This issue may allow a man-in-the-middle
attacker to intercept or redirect log traffic under specific and hard to
exploit conditions.

For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
2.17.1-1~deb11u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your apache-log4j2 packages.
