Erick Erickson resolved SOLR-7896.
----------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem

Please bring this kind of thing up on the user's list rather than raise JIRAs 
to be sure you're not simply misunderstanding things. If it's a real problem in 
Solr, _then_ raise a JIRA.

Solr has _never_ been intended to allow end-user access and thus has never 
implemented this kind of security. You allow me to get to the Solr URL directly 
and I can
http://machine:port/solr/collection/update?commit=true&stream.body=<delete><query>*:*</query></delete>

All your docs are gone.

> Solr Administrative Interface Lacks Password Protection

>                 Key: SOLR-7896
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7896
>             Project: Solr
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: security, web gui
>    Affects Versions: 5.2.1
>            Reporter: Aaron Greenspan
>            Priority: Critical
>
> Out of the box, the Solr interface should require an administrative password 
> that the user is required to set. Apparently there are ways of configuring 
> Jetty to do this with HTTP AUTH or whatever. I'm a moderately experienced 
> Linux admin and a programmer; I've tried, numerous times, and I've not once 
> been able to get it to work. The point is this, though:
> *No one should have to try to get their Solr instance to support password 
> authentication and preferably SSL (even if it's just with a self-signed 
> certificate). Solr is designed to store huge amounts of data and is therefore 
> a likely target for malicious users.*
> This needs to be addressed! It's 2015 and Solr is on version 5!
