Q: How can I check if my Minecraft client is vulnerable to Log4j?

I know that the Log4Shell exploit in Log4j allows attackers to run arbitrary commands on people's computers, and that Minecraft is vulnerable. Is there a Minecraft server that I can join which will tell me if my client is patched or if I'm vulnerable? If not, is there another way that I can check...

@Memor-X Same to you!

@MBraedley Yeah I've started part 1, but I didn't have time.

I was thinking of trying to be super clever with it.

I might just do A* or something, but not sure when I'll have time. Busy busy busy!

Todays one looks way quicker

@Ronan Oh no

That's not a good laugh

Oh jesus christ. OKay now I see.

well I'm going to go make breakfast and probably play slay the spire then return to this afterwards

Probably fit a shower in there somewhere too

It's a really interesting problem, and it's not actually that difficult once you've worked it out. I kinda wish there was a hint system or something because I got stuck at a few key points and looking on the reddit gave me slightly too much information

I worked out d23p1 by hand (which took me several attempts). I tried threading the shit out of it recursively checking each possible move, but none of them ever finished.

i.e. I never got a solution, let alone the smallest solution.

I'll put this on a branch for future reference.
