Subject: CVE-2026-82382: Apache Roller: Reflected cross-site scripting in
 the frontpage directory parameter 

Severity: Moderate 
    CVSS 3.1: 6.1 (medium) CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N

Affected versions:

- Apache Roller 6.1.5

Description:

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') in Apache Roller 6.1.5 allows a remote attacker to perform reflected cross-site scripting against a visitor to a weblog using the bundled frontpage theme, by supplying a crafted blog-directory parameter that the directory page reflects without proper escaping. This affects only weblogs that use the bundled frontpage theme, and a victim must follow a crafted link for the script to execute. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache Roller 6.1.6 or later, which validates and contextually escapes the reflected parameter.
