Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-4470:
-----------------------------------

You're right that the patch is huge and would be better broken up in smaller 
steps. However, the patch SOLR-4470_branch_4x_r1454444.patch is known to work 
well if you check out that revision, so you may want to test that. The trunk 
patch and my github branch currently is broken, but the plan is to get it 
working and let the feature bake in trunk for some while before backporting to 
4.x

> We want to protect any HTTP-resource (url). We want to require credentials no 
> matter what kind of HTTP-request you make to a Solr-node.
> It can faily easy be acheived as described on 
> http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrSecurity. This problem is that Solr-nodes 
> also make "internal" request to other Solr-nodes, and for it to work 
> credentials need to be provided here also.
> Ideally we would like to "forward" credentials from a particular request to 
> all the "internal" sub-requests it triggers. E.g. for search and update 
> request.
> But there are also "internal" requests
> * that only indirectly/asynchronously triggered from "outside" requests (e.g. 
> shard creation/deletion/etc based on calls to the "Collection API")
> * that do not in any way have relation to an "outside" "super"-request (e.g. 
> replica synching stuff)
> We would like to aim at a solution where "original" credentials are 
> "forwarded" when a request directly/synchronously trigger a subrequest, and 
> fallback to a configured "internal credentials" for the 
> asynchronous/non-rooted requests.
> In our solution we would aim at only supporting basic http auth, but we would 
> like to make a "framework" around it, so that not to much refactoring is 
> needed if you later want to make support for other kinds of auth (e.g. digest)
> We will work at a solution but create this JIRA issue early in order to get 
> input/comments from the community as early as possible.
