Debian DLA-1360-1 : lucene-solr security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 109327

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

It was discovered that there was an XML external entity expansion (XXE) vulnerability in lucene-solr, a search engine library for Java.

It could be exploited to read arbitrary local files from the Solr server or the internal network. For Debian 7 'Wheezy', this issue has been fixed in lucene-solr version 3.6.0+dfsg-1+deb7u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your lucene-solr packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
