Hi Team

We are using TOS 7.3.1 community edition

We are facing an issue with vulnerability with below jar files 

Is there any patch on Talend so we can upgrade to remove these vulnerabilities 

 

Need urgent help on fixing this vulnerability issue , with log4j 2.12.1 jar version

We need an upgraded log4j version

Hello,

I’m afraid we do not supply patches for the Open Studio releases. We only provide patches for our subscription products.

The mitigation steps are now located on Talend Help Center

https://help.talend.com/r/EeTpT8r7xmeq1HtTGQBqGA/zX7iWLX6GgxOAjJPlpXNYA

Which provides all the workarounds for studio.

Note: The mitigation steps that we have described in the Talend Help apply to TOS as well.

Best regards

Sabrina

What's the issue? Last week, a vulnerability was found in Log4j, an open-source logging library commonly used by apps and services across the internet. If left unfixed, attackers can break into systems, steal passwords and logins, extract data, and infect networks with malicious software. My Macys Insite Login

@Xiaodi Shi​  This should be considered for fixing in open studio too

Hello,

The latest version of Talend is v8 at the moment. This was released just prior to the Log4j bug, so the Open Studio version does not have the fixes built-in. The subscription v8 products have been patched. You can try upgrading the Log4j libraries that your version of Talend uses. Have you ever seen the “modules” section in the Studio? Here you can add and replace Jars which are used. You could try to replace the Jars affected with fixed Jars. If you try this, it would be best to test it thoroughly in a Studio that is a “throwaway” instance and not one you are currently using for development.

Best regards

Hello,

Thanks for your suggestion. As Talend 8 version was released prior to the vulnerability being revealed, there would be built-in fixed in the next released for talend open solution.

Best regards

Hi Sabrina

I have tried this solution with 8.0.1 open source, it doesn't work

Every time Talend is opened, it creates these vulnerable jar files ​

Hello,

Could you please have a look at this topic about Updating a jar file for official Talend components

https://community.talend.com/s/question/0D55b00006K2hIBCAZ/updating-a-jar-file-for-official-talend-c...

We made a testing on V 7.3.1 and it works.

Feel free to post your issue here.

Best regards

Hello xdshi,

 

I have tried updating jar file directly from modules but whenever I open Talend, those old vulnerable jars are created again in backend folders. How can we resolve this?

Hello,

Could you please check if the newest vulnerable jars files are showing in the modules view as "installed"?

Best regards
