May I know if backdrop vulnerable to the Log4shell/Log4j (CVE-2021-44228) in any stage or version or third party plugin found vulnerable to this ? Is there any official statement from backdrop on this ? I need a firm answer on this. Thanks.

Note: I don't speak officially for Backdrop, but I'm pretty confident about this.

Wow, yeah, that's a pain with CKEditor5. A custom plugin, for sure, but no clue, what the code has to look like...
I think maybe the problem is with CKEditor stripping the tags - it can be more aggressive than what you would expect from the text format settings. I copied your examples into an example page...

I'm glad to hear this. Thanks for your affirmation.
