Deployments of Apache Solr 5.3.0 through 9.10.0 that rely on Solr's "Rule Based Authorization Plugin" are vulnerable to allowing unauthorized access to certain Solr APIs, due to insufficiently strict input validation in those components. Only deployments that meet all of the following criteria are impacted by this vulnerability: * Use of Solr's "RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin" * A RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin config (see security.json) that specifies multiple "roles" * A RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin permission list (see security.json) that uses one or more of the following pre-defined permission rules: "config-read", "config-edit", "schema-read", "metrics-read", or "security-read". * A RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin permission list that doesn't define the "all" pre-defined permission * A networking setup that allows clients to make unfiltered network requests to Solr. (i.e. user-submitted HTTP/HTTPS requests reach Solr as-is, unmodified or restricted by any intervening proxy or gateway) Users can mitigate this vulnerability by ensuring that their RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin configuration specifies the "all" pre-defined permission and associates the permission with an "admin" or other privileged role. Users can also upgrade to a Solr version outside of the impacted range, such as the recently released Solr 9.10.1.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Deployments of Apache Solr 5.3.0 through 9.10.0 that rely on Solr's Rule Based Authorization Plugin are     vulnerable to allowing unauthorized access to certain Solr APIs, due to insufficiently strict input     validation in those components. Only deployments that meet all of the following criteria are impacted by     this vulnerability: * Use of Solr's RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin * A RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin config     (see security.json) that specifies multiple roles * A RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin permission list (see     security.json) that uses one or more of the following pre-defined permission rules: config-read,     config-edit, schema-read, metrics-read, or security-read. * A RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin     permission list that doesn't define the all pre-defined permission * A networking setup that allows     clients to make unfiltered network requests to Solr. (i.e. user-submitted HTTP/HTTPS requests reach Solr     as-is, unmodified or restricted by any intervening proxy or gateway) Users can mitigate this vulnerability     by ensuring that their RuleBasedAuthorizationPlugin configuration specifies the all pre-defined     permission and associates the permission with an admin or other privileged role.
