We will need to do some system maintenance on the 17th/18th of December due to a vulnerability that has been identified in the Log4j library that Amazon Web Services (AWS) runs on. Creative Force runs on AWS, so we need to update our services after AWS has patched this vulnerability.
Further details can be found in the below two articles:
CVE-2021-44228 Detail (NIST)
Update for Apache Log4j2 Issue (CVE-2021-44228) (AWS)
As security is of the utmost importance, we wanted to roll out this fix as soon as possible.
We are expecting two hours of downtime in the below time frame. At this time, all Creative Force applications will not be running.
