    Description

      The Lumberjack and Log4j 1.x logging backends have reach end-of-life in 2002 and 2015 respectively.

      To provide a "secure by default" configuration the Jdk13LumberjackLogger and Log4JLogger should be:

      • deprecated for removal in 2.x,
      • disabled by default.

      Users would need to enable these backends explicitly by setting the value of the property 'org.apache.commons.logging.Log' to the fully qualified name of the logger ('org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk13LumberjackLogger' or 'org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger') in either Java's system properties or a commons-logging.properties file on the classpath.
