For code included in MediaWiki, we do. Lucene we can segment on a different
server / network, so the attack surface and risk from exploitation is lower.
That being said, I did review several pieces of our Hadoop infrastructure, and
we generally want to make sure the organizations backing the components we use
have security programs.
