Summary

This PR updates the Apache Log4j Core dependency in the test sources module from 2.17.1 to 2.25.4. The change is minimal—a single version number update in the pom.xml file for a provided scope dependency, meaning it's used only for testing and doesn't affect runtime behavior of the tool itself.

The version jump from 2.17.1 to 2.25.4 includes nearly 8 years of maintenance, bug fixes, and security patches. Since this dependency is scoped as "provided," reviewers should primarily verify that no tests break due to API changes in Log4j.

What reviewers should know

What to check:

  • Verify the test build still passes (this is the critical check for a provided-scope test dependency)
  • The change is isolated to java-checks-test-sources/default/pom.xml—no code changes required
  • Since Log4j is only used for testing via the provided scope, there's no risk to the main artifact

Notes for reviewers:

  • This is a Dependabot-generated PR, so the update methodology is automated
  • The version jump is large but safe in the test context; focus on whether tests run cleanly with the newer version
