Response
Consider blocking the attacking IP(s) temporarily to prevent them to reach deeper parts of your production systems.
Considering the targeted application uses a vulnerable version of log4j and the default settings are disabled:
- Update log4j to the latest patched version immediately (>= 2.15.0)
- Disable lookups by setting
formatMsgNoLookups=true. Only available from log4j >= 2.10 versions - Use a non-vulnerable or empty implementation of the class
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.lookup.JndiLookup - Investigate the logs and the external class that is being called in the attack to check if the attacker successfully executed arbitrary code or not.
