Apache Roller

The XML-RPC protocol support in Apache Roller before 5.0.3 allows attackers to conduct XML External Entity (XXE) attacks via unspecified vectors.

Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) and File Enumeration vulnerability in Apache Roller 5.2.1, 5.2.0 and earlier unsupported versions relies on Java SAX Parser to implement its XML-RPC interface and by default that parser supports external entities in XML DOCTYPE, which opens Roller up to SSRF / File Enumeration vulnerability. Note that this vulnerability exists even if Roller XML-RPC interface is disable via the Roller web admin UI. Mitigation: There are a couple of ways you can fix this vulnerability: 1) Upgrade to the latest version of Roller, which is now 5.2.2 2) Or, edit the Roller web.xml file and comment out the XML-RPC Servlet mapping as shown below: <!-- <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>XmlRpcServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/roller-services/xmlrpc</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> -->

Apache Roller: Insufficient Session Expiration on Password Change

regex injection leading to DoS

The weblog page template in Apache Roller 5.1 through 5.1.1 allows remote authenticated users with admin privileges for a weblog to execute arbitrary Java code via crafted Velocity Text Language (aka VTL).

Certain getText methods in the ActionSupport controller in Apache Roller before 5.0.2 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary OGNL expressions via the first or second parameter, as demonstrated by the pageTitle parameter in the !getPageTitle sub-URL to roller-ui/login.rol, which uses a subclass of UIAction, aka "OGNL Injection."

Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in the admin/editor console in Apache Roller before 5.0.1 allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of admins or editors by leveraging the HTTP POST functionality.

A Reflected Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Apache Roller. Roller's Math Comment Authenticator did not property sanitize user input and could be exploited to perform Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS). The mitigation for this vulnerability is to upgrade to the latest version of Roller, which is now Roller 5.2.3.

Apache Roller: Roller's weblog category, weblog settings and file-upload features did not properly sanitize input could be exploited to perform Reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) even on a Roller site configured for untrusted users.

Apache Roller: Weakness in CSRF protection allows privilege escalation

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Apache Roller 2.3, 3.0, 3.1, and 4.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the q parameter in a search action.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Apache Roller before 5.0.2 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors related to the search results in the (1) RSS and (2) Atom feed templates.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in Apache Roller before 5.0.1 allow remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML by leveraging the blogger role.
