How to uncompress and list an initramfs content on Linux

How to test if your Linux server is vulnerable to Log4j - TechRepublic
This vulnerability has the highest CVSS score of 10.0, so you need to pay attention. One of the big problems is knowing if you're vulnerable. This is complicated by the many ways Log4j can be deployed. Are you using it as part of a Java project, is it rolled into a container, did you install it with your distribution package manager, and (if so) which log4j packages did you install? Or did you install it from source? Because of this, you might not even know if your server is vulnerable.
Fortunately, for Linux servers, GitHub user, Rubo77 created a script that will check for for packages that include vulnerable Log4j instances. It's in beta, and it's not one 100%, but it's a great place to start. Understand, this script doesn't test for jar files that were packaged with applications, so do not consider it anything more than a launching point to start your forensics.
I tested this script against a server that I knew had a vulnerable Log4j package installed, and it correctly tagged it. Here's how you can run that same script on your Linux servers to find out if you might be vulnerable.
