Description:
============

 The Pharmacy Reengineering (PRE) Project provided innovative enhancements 
 to Clinical Decision Support (CDS) within the Veterans Health 
 Administration (VHA). Medication order checks are currently accomplished 
 through the synergistic functionality of multiple applications, including 
 Medication Order Check Healthcare Application (MOCHA), Pharmacy 
 Enterprise Customization System (PECS), Pharmacy Product System-National 
 (PPS-N), and Data Update (DATUP). 
  
 DATUP is a utility that runs an automated process to maintain the First 
 Databank (FDB) Drug Information Framework (DIF) data and Department of 
 Veterans Affairs (VA) custom data used by MOCHA and currently maintained 
 at the national level by PECS and PPS-N.
  
 The purpose of this patch is to upgrade following libraries to comply 
 with the VA Technical Reference Model (TRM):
         log4j-api-2.25.3
