Can you please confirm what steps JIRA ASSISTANT has taken to protect itself against Log4j critical vulnerability CVE-2021-44228. Also how you ensure the customer is protected.

@Singletm2000 log4j is a Java module, and Jira-assistant is javascript.. also there is no reference to log4j in all code.

Did you review that before posting the issue?

Jira Assistant is not using log4j librari. Atleast no direct reference is available. Hence their is nothing we need to work on at this point. Hence closing this issue.

This would let the users to integrate with Cloud instance of Jira without prompting for permission at the time of integration. Hence for Chrome users, once the extension gets updated, it would get disabled due to change in permission. You can enable it again from Extensions page. However, for Firefox and Edge, extension already have access to all the sites (though it doesn't really need) which would be narrowed down only to atlassian.net which would be a security improvement.
