How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Ubuntu:14.04 lucene-solr.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream lucene-solr package and not the lucene-solr package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:14.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

When using ConfigurableInternodeAuthHadoopPlugin for authentication, Apache Solr versions prior to 8.8.2 would forward/proxy distributed requests using server credentials instead of original client credentials. This would result in incorrect authorization resolution on the receiving hosts.
