CVE-2026-41869: Apache Nutch: Unauthenticated forced shutdown and job interruption in Nutch Server (Nutch REST API)
Apache Nutch CVE-2026-41869 (moderate) lets unauthenticated users force shutdown or interrupt jobs via the Nutch Server REST API; fixed in 1.23.
A missing authorization and improper resource shutdown flaw in the Nutch Server REST API allows unauthenticated users to force a shutdown or interrupt running jobs. Apache Nutch versions 1.10 through 1.22 are affected. Version 1.23 fixes the issue by removing the Nutch Server; where upgrading is not possible, administrators must restrict access to instances running Nutch Server.
