Description of problem: The 'arara' tool bundles a vulnerable version (2.14.1) of log4j. While this probably doesn't make arara any more vulnerable to untrusted .tex files that it is already, it's probably a good idea to replace this vulnerable version of log4j. (If nothing else, it removes a false positive from scans for log4j exploits.) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): texlive-arara-20210325-40.fc35.noarch.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. unzip -q -c /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/scripts/arara/arara.jar META-INF/maven/org.apache.logging.log4j/log4j-api/pom.xml|grep -A 3 org.apache.logging.log4j|head -4 Actual results: <groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId> <artifactId>log4j</artifactId> <version>2.14.1</version> <relativePath>../</relativePath> Expected results: log4j should be newer than 2.14.1, probably 2.17.1. Additional info: Looks like upstream already fixed this, so it should be as simple as just an update: https://gitlab.com/islandoftex/arara/-/issues/77
