Jan Høydahl resolved SOLR-7207.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Closing as won't fix, as we ended up implementing Auth and Authz plugins
instead. And inter-node communication already uses PKI.
> PKI based security implementation for security in Solr
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-7207
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7207
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Noble Paul
>
> Historically, Solr has always stayed away from securing any operations and we
> even allow GET operation on an HTTP end point to manipulate almost anything
> inside a Solr cluster
> We can categorize the operations such as
> * Loading executable (runtime jars) SOLR-7126
> * conf files SOLR-6736
> * schema API
> * config API
> * collections API
> * /update/* operation to any collection
> SOLR-7126 has solved this problem using PKI where the public keys can be
> uploaded to {{/keys/exe}} and all jars loaded are verified using one of the
> public keys.
> A similar scheme can be used for other operations as well. We can add keys to
> other directories and use them to verify other operations. The only catch is
> , that we will need to send all the payload via POST
> The advantage of this scheme is that Solr does not need to manage any
> credentials or take care of storing anything secretly. It just needs a few
> public keys to be stored in ZK and security will kick in automatically.
> External solutions can build on top of these and provide authentication etc
