Apache Solr Real-Time - Critical - Access Bypass - SA-CONTRIB-2015-119

This module allows content-changes to be committed to Apache Solr in real-time.

The module doesn’t check the status of an entity being indexed which means that unpublished content will get indexed by Solr and the title and partial content may be exposed to any user who has permission to search site content.

CVE identifier(s) issued

• CVE-2015-5506

Versions affected

• Apache Solr Real-Time 7.x-1.x versions prior to 7.x-1.2.

Drupal core is not affected. If you do not use the contributed Apache Solr Real-Time module, there is nothing you need to do.

Solution

Install the latest version:

• If you use the Apache Solr Real-Time module for Drupal 7.x, upgrade to Apache Solr Real-Time 7.x-1.2

Note: upgrading the module is not enough. You should also reindex all your content to remove unpublished items from the index.

Also see the Apache Solr Real-Time project page.
