According to:

https://connect.altair.com/CP/security-info.html?type=nonvulnerable&owner=Altair

Altair HW 2021.1 and older are listed as NOT VULNERABLE to log4j vulnerabilities.

but according to:

https://connect.altair.com/CP/security-info.html?type=vulnerable&owner=Altair

Altair HW 2021.2 is VULNERABLE is vulnerable to log4j vulnerabilities.

Is this only because 2021.1 is obsolete, or is it for other reasons?
