CVE-2026-82384 is a deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability in Apache Roller 6.1.5. The XML-RPC endpoint accepts vendor-extended method calls and deserializes attacker-controlled bytes, allowing an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the server.
No authentication is required to reach the XML-RPC endpoint, which is commonly exposed on public-facing Roller installations.
What to do: Upgrade Apache Roller to a patched version. If an immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict external access to the XML-RPC endpoint at the network layer. See the NVD record and the Apache Roller GitHub fix for details.
