Safelog4j is an instrumentation-based security tool designed to help teams identify, verify, and mitigate the log4shell vulnerability (CVE-2021-45046) without the need for scanning or upgrading log4j. The tool utilizes interactive application security testing (IAST) to confirm exploitability and runtime application self-protection (RASP) to prevent exploitation by disabling the vulnerable JNDI lookup code dynamically. Unlike traditional scanning methods, Safelog4j provides greater accuracy and speed by operating from within the running application context.
