The bug
The time logged by the launcher is off by two hours while it uses any custom log config:
16:29:29 launcher Preparing to launch minecraft client for 1.12.2
16:29:29 launcher Checking installations.

18:29:30 game ERROR StatusLogger Error parsing C:\Users\bemoty\Desktop\test.xmlHow to reproduce
Enable Advanced settings in the launcher profiles tab
Enable Open output log when the game starts in the settings tab (launcher settings)
Edit a profile and set the attached file test.xml as the custom log config
Note: Happened with a PC in UTC+1 but setting the time zone to UTC or UTC+2 still caused an two hour offset.
