> This fixes the following vulnerability:
> - CVE-2026-40023:
> Apache Log4cxx's XMLLayout https://logging.apache.org/log4cxx/1.7.0/c
> lasslog4cxx_1_1xml_1_1XMLLayout.html , in versions before 1.7.0, fails
> to sanitize characters forbidden by the XML 1.0 specification
> https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/#charsets in log messages, NDC, and MDC
> property keys and values, producing invalid XML output. Conforming XML
> parsers must reject such documents with a fatal error, which may cause
> downstream log processing systems to drop or fail to index affected
> records. An attacker who can influence logged data can exploit this
> to suppress individual log records, impairing audit trails and
> detection of malicious activity. Users are advised to upgrade to
> Apache Log4cxx 1.7.0, which fixes this issue.
