Below is the security.json (with password hashes redacted): in Solr7.4 it
prompts for a password and (if you get it right) lets you into the whole GUI;
But in Solr8.1.1 and in Solr 8.3, it does not prompt for a password before
letting you into a crippled version of the GUI (as depicted in the attachment)

Subject: Re: Solr8 changes how security.json restricts access to GUI
Please show your complete Security.json so we know how auth is configured.
Which 8.x version are you trying? There should be a login screen shown in admin
UI now.
