Tim,
Thanks for the info.
We are not expecting an immediate fix for the Log4J issue as there isn’t a 
direct upgrade from Log4J 1.x to Log4J 2.x - but I was hoping that the changes 
made for that issue had been merged back and incorporated into the release.  
However, it is good to know that ActiveMQ is not affected by that Log4J 
SocketServer issue.
The other 2 issues (Shiro, XStream) are critically important to us and have 
already been resolved and so I look forward to using the new release to get the 
CVE fixes.

Best regards,
Simon.

Note that the comments on AMQ-7426 (Log4J 2) state the following:

ActiveMQ is not affected by CVE-2019-17571 directly as we don't use the
SocketServer.

The upgrade does not appear to be in 5.16.2, so expect that to remain in
your scan results, and you'll have to manually adjudicate the finding.

I doubt it'll be long, but I can't speak for the PMC members. There's a
legal aspect to reviewing releases, as well as checking that the actual
binaries are sound, so reviewing can involve a lot of work. The 72 hours is
a minimum time the vote has to be open for; its not unusual for votes to
take longer to allow for the work that goes into review.

Jon,
That’s great news.
It looks like the vote has been open for at least 4 days, so any ETA on
when the vote will be closed?
I can see that an additional binding vote is still required...

Best regards,
Simon.
