CVE-2021-29943: Incorrect Authorization

April 13, 2021 (updated June 8, 2021)

When using ConfigurableInternodeAuthHadoopPlugin for authentication, Apache Solr would forward/proxy distributed requests using server credentials instead of original client credentials. This would result in incorrect authorization resolution on the receiving hosts.
