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.

Blocks (custom) not displaying in Harris sidebars with visibility condition set to more than one url path (node)

Backdrop is definitely not vulnerable because of Log4j. Log4j is a Java component; Backdrop doesn't directly use Java, it's written in PHP, HTML, and JavaScript, with a smattering of scripting languages and configurations.
