Again, its serving pages but I can't get into the Admin pages. I did install this from the command line not from within the GUI -- Any Suggestions are welcome

Looks like a log4j bug. I'd put in a ticket with the full details.

@malllory.woods Is this a new-from-scratch install, or did you just install 14 on an existing and previously working 2018 instance?
m
This is an existing install. Update 13 had been applied before this. I also have opened a case with support. I'm going to include the log of the update which has two failures in the install
d
Has anyone else installed update 14 for cf 2018? Any issues?
m
Updating this thread - So I have noted my email about the issues however, the security team as notified me that the issue with log4j is still there. They mention that " Nessus is still detecting the 1.x version in the following locations: _*Path : /data/coldfusion2018/cfusion/lib/cf-logging.jar Version : 1.2.15 Path : /data/coldfusion2018/cfusion/wwwroot/WEB-INF/lib/log4j-1.2.15.jar Version : 1.2.15*_" is anyone else experiencing this?

@Mark Takata (Adobe) has raised a couple of similar issues. Mark, can you confirm if this particular Log4j 1.x jar is a known issue?

I believe @priyank_adobe has a couple of these tickets active. It seems like it is still appearing in some places? There seem to be two issues here, the admin not coming up + log4j still being detected. Mallory have you emailed support regarding this yet?
m
Yes I have. I am currently talking to support about this issue. They asked for a copy of the scans which I provided. I was told that this has been escalated to the devs to look at.
m
OK, good. Hopefully they get you an answer soon.
t
any word on this, I am also getting these files showing on scans
m
Nothing as of last week. I asked for an update on my ticket and was told nothing has been updated yet
t
link to your ticket so i can vote on it?
p
@malllory.woods Let's connect today, let me take a look into your issue.
m
@priyank_adobe Thanks, I have a few holes in my schedule at 12pm est if that's good for you
t
oh, my issue is the nesus scan finding log4j as cf-logging.jar
m
@Tyler Clendenin - Ah, I have send a one on one email to CF support on this. I didn't create a tracker issue. Sorry about that. If you have one open I'll happily vote for that. I will also report back here to you if I get some insight on this too
p
@Tyler Clendenin I understand that it is flagging the issue in your scanner however, it is not vulnerable and we have removed all the vulnerable classes from there. The reason, we couldn't remove it because it was breaking a lot of backward compatibility.
m
Thanks done and done! I'll also watch these to see if anything comes up.
p
I think, I can do it
t
@priyank_adobe ok, is there an official place you can point to that says as such so I can show it to the powers that be?
p
I will share the Teams link, pls check the DM.
t
@priyank_adobe? is there some official place, even adobe blog/tweet with your explanation above re: cf-logging.jar
p
It is not there in any official document.
