Ishan Chattopadhyaya commented on SOLR-14071:
---------------------------------------------
Thanks [~ctargett], [~ab].
bq. Also, I'm not too happy with removing functionality in a minor release
without a deprecation warning in prior releases.
Indeed, not a happy situation. But, it was needed for security reasons.

> 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.
