Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-50290 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.apache.solr:solr-core (Maven): affected from 9.0.0; fixed in 9.3.0\n- org.apache.solr:solr-core (Maven): affected from 9.0.0; fixed in 9.3.0\n- solr (Bitnami): affected from 9.0.0; fixed in 9.3.0\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50290/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50290/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-50290","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50290/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-50290","record":{"aliases":["BIT-solr-2023-50290","GHSA-gg7w-pw2r-x2cq","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-50290"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Solr search engine","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers with metrics-read permission can view sensitive host environment variables via the Solr Metrics API, exposing secrets.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"solr","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor vulnerability in Apache Solr.\nThe Solr Metrics API publishes all unprotected environment variables available to each Apache Solr instance.
