CVE-2026-118410
Apache Roller: Unpublished entries remain readable through search after AtomPub unpublish
Description
Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere in Apache Roller 4.0 through 6.1.6 allows an unauthenticated visitor to read an entry after its author has withdrawn it to draft through the AtomPub API. The entry was removed from the weblog but stayed in the search index, and public search showed its content. AtomPub is disabled by default. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Roller 6.1.7 or later, which shows only published entries in search results.
