             Summary: Backport some security fixes from 4.x to 3.6.x branch
                 Key: SOLR-5520
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5520
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.6.2
            Reporter: Uwe Schindler
            Assignee: Uwe Schindler


Redhat wants to backport some security fixes we applied in 4.1 and 4.6 to the 
Solr tree to 3.6, because their user-base still uses this version. To help them 
with backporting across the major API/version changes, we should also do this 
on the 3.6 branch.

Redhat already assigned 3 CVE numbers to these issues and take the older issues 
seriously, and they will patch older versions and also force users to upgrade. 
cf, [CVE-2013-6397|https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2013-6397] 
(SOLR-4882), 
[CVE-2013-6407|https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2013-6407] 
(SOLR-3895), 
[CVE-2013-6408|https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2013-6408] 
(SOLR-4881).

To fully fix, we might need to backport more patches. I will take care of this. 
This issue may be useful, if we release a 3.6.3 package.
