# Apache Roller: withdrawn blog entries stay visible in public search

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-118410 (this .md is for agents)

Apache Roller keeps a blog entry in its search index after the author moves it back to draft through the AtomPub API. An unauthenticated visitor can then read the withdrawn content through public search.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the Apache Roller version in use; affected releases are 4.0 through 6.1.6.
- Check whether AtomPub is enabled on the weblog server; it is disabled by default.

## Fix

- Upgrade Apache Roller to `6.1.7` or later.

## Timeline

- 2026-11-11T13:27:11+00:00 nvd https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-118410

## From the sources

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Wrong Sphere in Apache Roller 4.0 through 6.1.6 allows an unauthenticated visitor to read an entry after its author has withdrawn it to draft through the AtomPub API.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.
