Peter Dietz commented on DS-858:
--------------------------------

The easiest way to fix an affected 1.7.0 instance is to:
Replace [dspace]/webapps/solr/WEB-INF/web.xml with 
http://scm.dspace.org/svn/repo/modules/dspace-solr/tags/dspace-solr-parent-1.4.1.1/webapp/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml
Restart tomcat.
For good measure, if you are using Discovery, also be sure to then reindex 
discovery: [dspace]/bin/dspace update-discovery-index -f

> Multicore SOLR needs prevent remote access to solr cores

> Kim Shepherd has noticed that a default installation of DSpace 1.7.0 with no 
> further security hardening through configuration of Tomcat and Apache HTTPD 
> will allow remote access to SOLR. This problem was created when Solr went 
> multicore on DSpace. The security vulnerabilities are that a remote user 
> could view data in solr (non anonymised usage data, private metadata) that is 
> typically restricted from remote users. Additionally a malicious user could 
> alter or delete data in Solr.
> The fix for this is included in 1.7.1. Current users of DSpace 1.7.0 can 
> either upgrade to 1.7.1 as soon as possible, or patch their 
> [dspace]/webapps/solr/WEB-INF/web.xml with the change made in r6161 
> https://fisheye3.atlassian.com/browse/dspace/modules/dspace-solr/trunk/webapp/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml?r2=6161&r1=5524
>  which moves the filter-mapping for LocalHostRestrictionFilter above 
> SolrRequestFilter
> After patching or upgrading your system, those using Discovery should reindex 
> their content. 
> [dspace]/bin/dspace update-discovery-index -f
