Now this is very scary, while searching for "solr direct access per docid" I
got a hit
from US Homeland Security Digital Library. Interested in what they have to tell
me
about my search I clicked on the link to the page. First the page had nothing
unusual
about it, but why I get the hit?
http://www.hsdl.org/?collection/stratpol&id=4
Inspecting the page source view shows that they have the solr query displayed
direct
on their page as "span" with "style=display:none".
-- snippet --
<!-- Search Results -->
<span style="display: none;">*** SOLR Query *** — q=Collection:0 AND

As you can see I have searched for "China Forces Senior Intelligence Officer"
so this is directly showing the
query string.
Do they know that there is also a delete by query?
And the are also escape sequences?
This is what I call scary.
Maybe some of the US fellows can give them a hint and a helping hand.

Bernd
