When developing Java applications, it is easy to get used to invoking logging on the provided logger via its log level-specific methods.

Cybersecurity researchers warn on the growing pace of scans and attempted attacks looking to exploit the Java logging library security flaw.

Log4j is an open-source Java logging framework part of the Apache Logging Services used at enterprise level in various applications from vendors across the world.

Four months after the discovery of the zero-day Log4Shell critical flaw, millions of Java applications still remain vulnerable to compromise, researchers have found.

A critical flaw in a popularly used Java library is being exploited by malicious actors to deliver malware, while security researchers are scanning for vulnerable servers.

Aborting."); System.exit(1); } Some other good features of Java exception handling are checked exceptions, user-defined exceptions, and the new Java logging API coming out in JDK 1.4.

Attackers are actively exploiting a critical vulnerability in Apache Log4j, a logging library that’s used in potentially millions of Java-based applications, including web-based ones.
