CVE-2019-0193

solr: Remote Code Execution via DataImportHandler

Published Aug 1, 2019 CVSS 3.1 · 7.2 High EPSS 83.5% KEV · Listed
Description
In Apache Solr, the DataImportHandler, an optional but popular module to pull in data from databases and other sources, has a feature in which the whole DIH configuration can come from a request's "dataConfig" parameter. The debug mode of the DIH admin screen uses this to allow convenient debugging / development of a DIH config. Since a DIH config can contain scripts, this parameter is a security risk. Starting with version 8.2.0 of Solr, use of this parameter requires setting the Java System property "enable.dih.dataConfigParam" to true.
