The persistent threat of Log4Shell and Spring4Shell vulnerabilities remains significant, with over 60,000 projects still at risk despite being disclosed and fixed two years ago. Many companies continue to use outdated versions of these libraries in their projects, often due to the pressure of delivering new features and maintaining existing codebase, leading to a developer's dilemma between security and functionality. The attack complexity of these vulnerabilities is considered low, making them particularly high-risk. As developers, it's essential to recognize the importance of ensuring application safety and take responsibility for patching up vulnerabilities, rather than relying on others to fix the problems. Snyk provides tooling to help detect and address security vulnerabilities in applications, but ultimately, it's up to individual developers to shore up their defenses and keep their code secure.
