Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache Roller version 6.1.5
Description
Improper neutralization of input during web page generation allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to store a crafted comment-author URL through the incoming Trackback endpoint when a published entry accepts comments and Trackbacks. Due to default verification and moderation settings, the crafted value can be approved and rendered as an active link, leading to the execution of scripts in the weblog's origin when a visitor clicks the link. This is a stored cross-site scripting issue, where malicious scripts are permanently stored on the target server.
Recommendations
Upgrade to Apache Roller versions 6.1.6 and later.
Disable Trackbacks and remove untrusted Trackback comments.
Fix
XSS
