Upgrade Apache Roller to version 6.1.7 or later, where the vulnerability is fixed by serving media files under consistent rules and disallowing user-supplied paths in uploads. If media uploads are not required, ensure they remain disabled to reduce risk.

Description

CVE-2026-111824 is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Apache Roller 6.1.6. It allows an authenticated user with the Author role on a weblog using a custom theme to store malicious script that executes in the browsers of users who open the affected resource URL. The issue arises because media files uploaded with a user-chosen path were served with a content type based on that path, bypassing previous fixes that restricted media serving rules. Media uploads are disabled by default. Upgrading to Apache Roller 6.1.7 or later mitigates this vulnerability by enforcing consistent media serving rules and disallowing user-supplied paths in uploads.
