Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-7236:
-----------------------------------

Yep, we need a container agnostic security API like Shiro. Or we could roll our 
own, but I'm not convinced that's necessary, I suspect it is such a thing that 
will grow out of hand, with constant requests for more bindings to framework X 
and thus give too wide an attack surface in Solr-specific code.

> This is an umbrella issue for adding security to Solr. The discussion here 
> should discuss real user needs and high-level strategy, before deciding on 
> implementation details. All work will be done in sub tasks and linked issues.
> Solr has not traditionally concerned itself with security. And It has been a 
> general view among the committers that it may be better to stay out of it to 
> avoid "blood on our hands" in this mine-field. Still, Solr has lately seen 
> SSL support, securing of ZK, and signing of jars, and discussions have begun 
> about securing operations in Solr.
> Some of the topics to address are
> * User management (flat file, AD/LDAP etc)
> * Authentication (Admin UI, Admin and data/query operations. Tons of auth 
> protocols: basic, digest, oauth, pki..)
> * Authorization (who can do what with what API, collection, doc)
> * Pluggability (no user's needs are equal)
> * And we could go on and on but this is what we've seen the most demand for
