: In revision   743163 of  the Solr 4.10  example solrconfig.xml file
: enableRemoteStreaming was (accidentally?)  changed from "false" to true.

yeah ... that was 5 years ago.

I dont remember specifically if it was an accident at the time, but the 
inclusion in release versions since has been intentional given the 
"example" nature of the file -- which is why SOLR-2397 added a very 
specific warning about it (starting with Solr 3.1) ...

         *** WARNING ***
         The settings below authorize Solr to fetch remote files, You
         should make sure your system has some authentication before
         using enableRemoteStreaming="true"

(i don't have any links to mailing list discussions handy, but i do recall 
it was discussed repeatedly.)


: Should I open a JIRA?

Given SOLR-3619, i think it would probably be a good idea to change this 
to false in the new configset/data_driven_schema_configs & 
cofigset/basic_configs that we ship -- so yes, please open a jira for 
discussion ... but i don't really think it's a "security hole" or 
something that needs attention in a 4.10.x release.
