Description

@fastlorenzo

In order to mitigate potential impact from Log4shell, Elastic packages needs to be upgraded to version 7.16.1.
This will also bring several fixes and performance improvements, as well as better support for ECS format.

More information: https://discuss.elastic.co/t/apache-log4j2-remote-code-execution-rce-vulnerability-cve-2021-44228-esa-2021-31/291476

Bumped the following to version 7.16.1:

  • filebeat on redirs
  • filebeat on c2servers
  • elkserver/elasticsearch
  • elkserver/kibana
  • elkserver/logstash

Things left to do or research:

  • Check if neo4j docker image should be updated It's at 4.2 atm. Vendor info: https://community.neo4j.com/t/log4j-cve-mitigation-for-neo4j/48856/2 - Couldnt hurt to update to 4.4 anyway.
  • Check if Kibana app in elkserver/kibana should be updated. It makes use of an explicit version 7.10 atm.
  • Check if jupyter/scipy-notebook docker image is vulnerable. It is using docker image version 4a112c0f11eb atm. Couldn't hurt to update to latest anyway.
  • Overall testing
