Aruba SIRT consulted with the product teams, and Aruba Threat Labs performed various tests using POC (Proof of Concept) code against products. Although some Aruba products use the log4j library, none of them use it in a way that makes them vulnerable the published vulnerabilities. The conclusion of the investigation is that the products listed above under the Unaffected Products section are not vulnerable to these vulnerabilities. If new information is discovered, this advisory will be updated.
