Shared Open Source issues:
Description Reference

After upgrading to 11.7.1.4 SP1, the Solr Admin UI is only available on the microservices tier due to the better out of the box security that comes with Solr 9 upgrade.
Refer the Solr 9 release notes:
https://solr.apache.org/guide/solr/latest/upgrade-notes/major-changes-in-solr-9.html

Solr now binds to localhost network interface by default for better out of the box security. Administrators that need Solr exposed more broadly can change the SOLR_JETTY_HOST property in their Solr include (solr.in.sh/solr.in.cmd) file.

Workaround:

The property SOLR_JETTY_HOST (in shared-open-source/solr/install/bin/solr.in.sh) sets the network interface that Solr binds to. To prevent administrators from accidentally exposing Solr more widely than intended, this address defaults to 127.0.0.1. Administrators should think carefully about their deployment environment and set this value as narrowly as required before going to production. In environments where security is not a concern, 0.0.0.0 can be used to allow Solr to accept connections on all network interfaces.

For Microsoft Windows, the file to be modified would be solr.in.bat.
