DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in Apache Roller, which can be
exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site request forgery
attacks.

The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP
requests without performing any validity checks to verify the
requests. This can be exploited to e.g. perform certain
administrative actions by tricking a logged in administrator into
visiting a malicious web site.

The vulnerability is reported in version 5.0. Prior versions may also
be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 5.0.1.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
The vendor credits Jun Zhu, University of North Carolina.
