eXist-db 4.10.0

eXist-db 4.10.0 Release Notes

Verison 4.10.0 is identical to version 4.9.0, apart from it includes an update from Log4j2 version 2.15.0 to version 2.17.1. This Log4j2 update incorporates fixes for security issues CVE-2021-45105, CVE-2021-45046, and CVE-2021-44228. To fix the security issues, Log4j2 removed some log format customisation functionality. eXist-db does not rely on this customisation support in its default configuration, however, if you are using such functionality, you will need to stick with eXist-db 4.9.0 or update your Log4j2 configuration; for more details see: https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/security.html#CVE-2021-44832.

Where possible, we recommend that all users choose to deploy eXist-db 4.10.0 over eXist-db 4.9.0.
