[updated on Dec, 14th. 9PM Paris time]

DELMIAWorks has been in active review of any instance of Log4J in the DELMIAWorks code-base.  Currently Log4J is not used by DELMIAWorks explicitly, however it is present in Oracle products.

There are 3 main areas where Log4J is present with DELMIAWorks usage of Oracle:
1.    Oracle Database: Oracle currently lists this as not affected by the vulnerability, and does not need patching
2.    Oracle OHS (Referred to as ‘Apache’ in DELMIAWorks documentation): Oracle currently lists this as not affected by the vulnerability, and does not need patching
3.    SQL Developer: Oracle currently lists this as no impact but highly recommends updating to the latest version (https://www.oracle.com/tools/downloads/sqldev-downloads.html)

DELMIAWorks will continue to monitor Oracle’s updates for any changes to Oracle’s stance on their products and will update this document as any new information becomes available.
