Per Steffensen commented on SOLR-4470:
--------------------------------------

bq. Does anyone have an idea when this will be released? Thanks!

My best guess is never, unfortunately. But you can build your own version of 
Solr including it. We do that. I can give you a few hints on how to build your 
own Solr, if you want. Do not have the time to give you a thorough description. 
But a few hints I will manage. Let me know. Do not know if it is actually 
described in details somewhere?

> We want to protect any HTTP-resource (url). We want to require credentials no 
> matter what kind of HTTP-request you make to a Solr-node.
> It can faily easy be acheived as described on 
> http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrSecurity. This problem is that Solr-nodes 
> also make "internal" request to other Solr-nodes, and for it to work 
> credentials need to be provided here also.
> Ideally we would like to "forward" credentials from a particular request to 
> all the "internal" sub-requests it triggers. E.g. for search and update 
> request.
> But there are also "internal" requests
> * that only indirectly/asynchronously triggered from "outside" requests (e.g. 
> shard creation/deletion/etc based on calls to the "Collection API")
> * that do not in any way have relation to an "outside" "super"-request (e.g. 
> replica synching stuff)
> We would like to aim at a solution where "original" credentials are 
> "forwarded" when a request directly/synchronously trigger a subrequest, and 
> fallback to a configured "internal credentials" for the 
> asynchronous/non-rooted requests.
> In our solution we would aim at only supporting basic http auth, but we would 
> like to make a "framework" around it, so that not to much refactoring is 
> needed if you later want to make support for other kinds of auth (e.g. digest)
> We will work at a solution but create this JIRA issue early in order to get 
> input/comments from the community as early as possible.
