In Apache Log4j 2.x before 2.8.2, when using the TCP socket server or UDP socket server to receive serialized log events from another application, a specially crafted binary payload can be sent that, when deserialized, can execute arbitrary code.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Oracle ADF Faces. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the Remote Regions component. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in deserialization of untrusted data. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the web server.
