Apache Solr Search – Moderately Critical – Access Bypass – SA-CONTRIB-2015-170

Description

This module enables you to connect to an Apache Solr search server to provide a replacement for Drupal core content search and provide both extra features and better search performance and relevance.

The module doesn’t correctly check access when attempting to delete non-default search environments.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that the site must have a non-default environment configured and an attacker must discover the ID of the environment.
