Python script to detect if an HTTP server is potentially vulnerable to the log4j 0day RCE (https://www.lunasec.io/docs/blog/log4j-zero-day/)

This should allow you to detect if something is potentially exploitable to the log4j 0day dropped on December 9th 2021.
WARNING: This script is extremely naive in a lot of ways cause it was put together in 15 min. See comments below.
