Hello,

Sorry if this has been raised before, I could find it.
I was looking at issues that I had reported on JIRA and I was surprised to
see that the list of issues was different when I was logged in vs logged
out, since none of the issues are confidential.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-14421?jql=project%20%3D%20SOLR%20AND%20reporter%20in%20(cjcowie)%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20DESC%2C%20updated%20DESC

The JIRA help has this to say about security levels:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ShowConstantsHelp.jspa?decorator=popup#SecurityLevels
Security Levels

An issue has a security level which indicates which users are able to view
the issue. The currently defined security levels are listed below. In
addition, you can add more security levels in the administration section.
*Private (Security Issue)*Private Issue viewable by the reporter and those
in the project PMC Role *Public*Default Security Level. Issues are Public

Which to me would suggest that None and Public are the same thing, and that
Public issues would be visible to people who are not signed into JIRA -
which they are. *Except* they are not searchable.

For an issue marked as Public I can visit it directly if I have the issue
number, but I cannot search for its text. As soon as I change the Security
Level to None on an issue its text is searchable.

That doesn't seem right to me, but if it is working as intended, then maybe
the help text could be updated?

Colvin
