Cassandra Targett resolved SOLR-13115.
--------------------------------------
    Resolution: Invalid

The vulnerability reported by the scanner is a false positive. It is not possible to exploit the vulnerability in this dependency in Solr.

We have created a page that includes this and several other dependencies that are flagged and explains how they are not true vulnerabilities for Solr: https://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrSecurity#Solr_and_Vulnerability_Scanning_Tools. This .jar is listed there.

If you had discovered a real vulnerability, the ASF has created guidelines for how to report it, detailed here: https://www.apache.org/security/. Ideally, a report is sent to security@apache.org first, but if a JIRA is created first instead, you are encouraged to mark the issue as private so attack vectors are not exposed to the general public before they can be mitigated by the community in the form of patches or new releases.
