The Apache Roller project has announced the availability of a new Apache Roller 5.0.1 release. This new release is identical to Apache Roller 5.0 but with the addition of two security fixes: 1) fix for Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities and 2) fix for Cross-Site Resource Forgery (XRSF) vulnerabilities.
All Roller sites are urged to upgrade to Roller 5.0.1 as soon as possible. Download Apache Roller 5.0.1 at the Roller downloads page here
