Subject: CVE-2013-6397 Backport
Hello Uwe,
I was looking at the changes to back port the fix for CVE-2013-6397 to the Solr
3.6 branch, and I noticed what I believe may be a mistake. I'm not familiar
with the Solr codebase but I believe the addition made on L125 is overwritten
at L128 also visible in the diff.
For background we (Sonatype) track vulnerabilities affecting artifacts in Maven
Central.

> 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]

> [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.
