Ishan Chattopadhyaya commented on SOLR-14071:
---------------------------------------------
bq. Do we have any idea what happens to this during upgrades? If I am running
Solr 8.3 and do not have authentication enabled but have a custom configset I
uploaded that uses the <lib /> directive, what happens when I upgrade to 8.4?
Will my configset suddenly stop working?
Yes, it will stop working :-( Do you suggest we add this detail somewhere?
Upgrade notes?

> Allowing untrusted configsets, i.e. those have been uploaded using the
> configset upload API without authx enabled, to use the <lib> directive can
> open up possibilities for malicious users to include insecure contribs
> libraries.
> Whoever wants to use their own libraries can add them to the classpath of
> Solr (i.e. place them wherever solr-core-*jar resides). For them, the <lib>
> directive won't be necessary anyway.
