Update the product update dropdown's label and options. Mainly focused on removing usage of Yes/No because these are boolean values in YAML and thus needed special handling compared to other strings.

Mitigation Guidance
When updates are available, agencies must update software using Log4j to the newest version, which is the most effective and manageable long-term option. Where updating is not possible, the following mitigating measures can be considered as a temporary solution and apply to the entire solution stack.
- Disable Log4j library. Disabling software using the Log4j library is an effective measure, favoring controlled downtime over adversary-caused issues. This option could cause operational impacts and limit visibility into other issues.
- Disable JNDI lookups or disable remote codebases. This option, while effective, may involve developer work and could impact functionality.
- Disconnect affected stacks. Solution stacks not connected to agency networks pose a dramatically lower risk from attack. Consider temporarily disconnecting the stack from agency networks.
- Isolate the system. Create a “vulnerable network” VLAN and segment the solution stack from the rest of the enterprise network.
- Deploy a properly configured Web Application Firewall (WAF) in front of the solution stack. Deploying a WAF is an important, but incomplete, solution. While threat actors will be able to bypass this mitigation, the reduction in alerting will allow an agency SOC to focus on a smaller set of alerts.
- Apply micropatch. There are several micropatches available. They are not a part of the official update but may limit agency risk.
- Report incidents promptly to CISA and/or the FBI here.
