Apache Solr 8.3.0 Velocity Template Remote Code Execution
Posted by deepcore on April 3, 2020 – 2:13 pm
This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability in Apache Solr versions 8.3.0 and below which allows remote code execution via a custom Velocity template. Currently, this module only supports Solr basic authentication. From the Tenable advisory: An attacker could target a vulnerable Apache Solr instance by first identifying a list of Solr core names. Once the core names have been identified, an attacker can send a specially crafted HTTP POST request to the Config API to toggle the params resource loader value for the Velocity Response Writer in the solrconfig.xml file to true. Enabling this parameter would allow an attacker to use the Velocity template parameter in a specially crafted Solr request, leading to remote code execution.
