Shalin Shekhar Mangar commented on SOLR-7896:
---------------------------------------------
bq. As a slightly longer term goal, I believe this ticket does have merit, and
given we have auth capabilities in Solr now, it makes sense to place the admin
UI behind that.
Upayavira, this already works if you enable Basic Auth via the new capabilities

> Solr Administrative Interface Lacks Password Protection
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-7896
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7896
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: security, web gui
> Affects Versions: 5.2.1
> Reporter: Aaron Greenspan
> Priority: Critical
>
> Out of the box, the Solr interface should require an administrative password
> that the user is required to set. Apparently there are ways of configuring
> Jetty to do this with HTTP AUTH or whatever. I'm a moderately experienced
> Linux admin and a programmer; I've tried, numerous times, and I've not once
> been able to get it to work. The point is this, though:
> *No one should have to try to get their Solr instance to support password
> authentication and preferably SSL (even if it's just with a self-signed
> certificate). Solr is designed to store huge amounts of data and is therefore
> a likely target for malicious users.*
> This needs to be addressed! It's 2015 and Solr is on version 5!
