[ANNOUNCE] Apache Solr 5.5.5 released
24 October 2017, Apache Solr™ 5.5.5 available

The Lucene PMC is pleased to announce the release of Apache Solr 5.5.5.

Solr is the popular, blazing fast, open source NoSQL search platform from the
Apache Lucene project. Its major features include powerful full-text search,
hit highlighting, faceted search and analytics, rich document parsing,
geospatial search, extensive REST APIs as well as parallel SQL. Solr is
enterprise grade, secure and highly scalable, providing fault tolerant
distributed search and indexing, and powers the search and navigation features
of many of the world's largest internet sites.

This release contains one bugfix.

This release includes one critical and one important security fix. Details:

* Fix for a 0-day exploit (CVE-2017-12629), details: https://s.apache.org/FJDl.
RunExecutableListener has been disabled by default (can be enabled by
-Dsolr.enableRunExecutableListener=true) and resolving external entities in the
XML query parser (defType=xmlparser or {!xmlparser ... }) is disabled by default.

* Fix for CVE-2017-7660: Security Vulnerability in secure inter-node communication
in Apache Solr, details: https://s.apache.org/APTY

Furthermore, this release includes Apache Lucene 5.5.5 which includes one security
fix since the 5.5.4 release.

The release is available for immediate download at:

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Solr 5.5.5 released [ In reply to ]
Hi Steve,

I have just started with Solr 7.*, so I am a bit confused with 5.5.5, same
with lucene.
Also, the sites register versions 7.*,
Apologies for my ignorance if I had missed anything or do not have a proper
understanding of the version management

Regards
Moenieb
