https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2017-3163
30 Aug 2017 — When using the Index Replication feature, Apache Solr nodes can pull index files from a master/leader node using an HTTP API which accepts a file name. However, Solr before 5.5.4 and 6.x before 6.4.1 did not validate the file name, hence it was possible to craft a special request involving path traversal, leaving any file readable to the Solr server process exposed. Solr servers protected and restricted by firewall rules and/or authentication would not be at risk since only trusted clients and users would g... • https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:1447 • CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') •

CVE-2017-7660 – Apache Solar 5.5.4 / 6.5.1 Member Spoofing
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2017-7660
07 Jul 2017 — Apache Solr uses a PKI based mechanism to secure inter-node communication when security is enabled. It is possible to create a specially crafted node name that does not exist as part of the cluster and point it to a malicious node. This can trick the nodes in cluster to believe that the malicious node is a member of the cluster. So, if Solr users have enabled BasicAuth authentication mechanism using the BasicAuthPlugin or if the user has implemented a custom Authentication plugin, which does not implement e... • http://mail-archives.us.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-announce/201707.mbox/%3CCAOOKt53EgrybaD%2BiSn-nBbvFdse-szhg%3DhMoDZuvUvyMme-Z%3Dg%40mail.gmail.com%3E • CWE-287: Improper Authentication •
