Apache Roller: XML external entity processing in AtomPub entry parsing
CVE-2026-105153 (Important):
https://lists.apache.org/thread/w7dsz19261myrcwx8ssbwr67hc1wfosj
Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference in Apache Roller 4.0
through 6.1.6 allows an authenticated user with no weblog permissions to
read files readable by the Roller process and cause the server to issue
outbound HTTP requests to attacker-chosen destinations, by submitting a
crafted Atom entry to the AtomPub endpoint. The entry body is parsed with a
parser configuration that permits external parameter entities and external
DTD subsets, and the parse happens before any per-weblog authorization check
and before any check of whether the AtomPub feature i
endpoint is reachable by any authenticated account on a default
installation. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apa
later, which parses AtomPub entries with a hardened XML configuration and
rejects AtomPub requests while the feature is disable
