## Key Changes in Apache Roller 6.1.4

### Safer defaults

As of Roller 6.1.4, several default settings have been updated to =
enhance security for multi-user weblog sites:

HTML content sanitization: Roller now sanitizes all HTML content by =
default to prevent malicious content. This is controlled by the =
weblogAdminsUntrusted=3Dtrue property in your roller-custom.properties =
file.

Custom themes and file-uploads disabled by default. You can enable this =
feature via the Server Admin page if you trust your users, as these =
features can pose security risks.

Better CSRF and XSS protection by user-specific and one-time-use salts.

JPA, Log4j, Lucene, and more.
