Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor Vulnerability in Apache Solr.
id: CVE-2023-50290
info:
name: Apache Solr - Host Environment Variables Leak via Metrics API
author: Banana69,DhiyaneshDK
severity: medium
description: |
Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor Vulnerability in Apache Solr.
The Solr Metrics API publishes all unprotected environment variables available to each Apache Solr instance. Users can specify which environment variables to hide, however, the default list is designed to work for known secret Java system properties. Environment variables cannot be strictly defined in Solr, like Java system properties can be, and may be set for the entire host,unlike Java system properties which are set per-Java-proccess.
impact: |
This vulnerability can lead to the exposure of sensitive information, potentially allowing an attacker to gain unauthorized access or perform further attacks.
remediation: Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.3.0 or later, in which environment variables are not published via the Metrics API.
