CVE-2017-5645 affects TcpSocketServer and UdpSocketServer classes that deserialize network-received log events without class filtering, enabling arbitrary code execution. These vulnerable components were completely removed from the main Apache Log4j2 distribution in version 2.9.0 (April 2017, commit 8865124fb1) and moved to a separate Tools repository. The target version 2.17.2 does not contain these socket server classes at all. Exhaustive search confirmed no network-based deserialization entry points exist in the current codebase. The only socket-related component found is SocketAppender, which is an outbound sender, not an inbound receiver. The removal was an upstream change that shipped in the release TuxCare onboarded.\n\nAdvisory cross-check (dlmn): outside the affected ranges of GitHub (>= 2.0, < 2.8.2; >= 2.0, < 2.8.2), NVD (>= 2.0, < 2.8.2), cve.org (= 2.0-alpha1; = 2.8.1), Snyk (>= 2.0, < 2.8.2; < 2.8.2).",
