Error description

  • Apache Solr cloud allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary
    code on the system, caused by a deserialization of untrusted
    data flaw in jmx.serviceUrl.
    

Local fix

  • To avoid this vulnerability the config API can be disabled. This
    can be done by adding the system property
    "disable.configEdit=true".
    
    This can be achieved by adding "-Ddisable.configEdit=true" to
    the sart-solr.sh or start-solr.bat startup scripts. Solr then
    needs to be stopped and restarted.
    

Problem summary

  • Apache Solr cloud allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary
    code on the system.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Avoid vulnerability by set the config api to read only mode.
