Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-2329:
-------------------------------------
SLF4J "fixed" the CVE by removing the EventData class. Log4j provides specific
support for that class so incrementing the version of SLF4J will cause
log4j-slf4j-impl to fail to compile. Removing the support would be a break in
compatibility (which is essentially what SLF4J did in its fix). SLF4J 1.8
releases will not work with log4j-slf4j-impl. For that log4j-slf4j18-impl must
be used.
