Hello Roller users,

you probably heard of "spring shell"* by now.

if you don't want to wait for a roller update release, building roller 
yourself is really easy.

follow first two steps described here:

https://github.com/apache/roller#quick-start-running-via-maven


The master branch already contains the spring dependency updates which 
include the fixes for the (known) vulnerabilities.

We updated a lot of code over the last ~two years, this allows making 
those dependency updates quickly without having to change anything code 
wise - the apache release process still takes time though - building 
roller yourself takes 5-10 minutes.

best regards,

michael
