Hi,

We are currently showing the SOLR endpoints to the public when using our
application (public users would be able to view the SOLR endpoints (/select)
and the query in debugging console).

I am trying to figure out if there is any security threat in terms of
displaying the endpoints directly in internet. We have disabled the update
handler in production so I assume writes / updates are not possible. 

The below URL mentions a point 'Solr does not concern itself with security
either at the document level or the communication level. It is strongly
recommended that the application server containing Solr be firewalled such
the only clients with access to Solr are your own.'

Is the above statement true even if we just display the read-only endpoints
to the public users? Can someone please advise?
