SCA: security update for org.apache.solr:solr-solrj, org.apache.solr:solr-solrj-streaming (GHSA-xrj7-x7gp-wwqr)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 420651

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor vulnerability in Apache Solr.This issue affects
 Apache Solr: from 6.0.0 through 8.11.2, from 9.0.0 before 9.4.1. Solr Streaming Expressions allows users
 to extract data from other Solr Clouds, using a "zkHost" parameter. When original SolrCloud is setup to
 use ZooKeeper credentials and ACLs, they will be sent to whatever "zkHost" the user provides. An attacker
 could setup a server to mock ZooKeeper, that accepts ZooKeeper requests with credentials and ACLs and
 extracts the sensitive information, then send a streaming expression using the mock server's address in
 "zkHost". Streaming Expressions are exposed via the "/streaming" handler, with "read" permissions. Users
 are recommended to upgrade to version 8.11.3 or 9.4.1, which fix the issue. From these versions on, only
 zkHost values that have the same server address (regardless of chroot), will use the given ZooKeeper
 credentials and ACLs when connecting. (CVE-2023-50298)
