Gus Heck commented on SOLR-18345:
---------------------------------
This feels a little like the mission of this method has crept from it's
original intent. Not sure why encodeLocalParam() would be involved in facets...
(not recognizing the \{!key= } use case off the top of my head)
> ClientUtils.encodeLocalParamVal() can produces lossy/invalid encodings

> ClientUtils.encodeLocalParamVal(String) safely embeds an arbitrary literal
> value into a Solr local-params string (e.g. \{!key=<value>\}, for consumption
> by QueryParsing#parseLocalParams / StrParser. It had two related bugs:
> 1. It escaped an embedded single quote (') but not an embedded backslash (\).
> Since StrParser#getQuotedString treats '\' as the start of an escape
> sequence, an unescaped backslash in the value is misinterpreted on
> decode (e.g. a literal "\n" in the value becomes an actual newline).
> 2. It failed to quote a value whose first character is itself a quote
> character ('or "), even when no other quoting trigger (whitespace or '}')
> was present. QueryParsing#parseLocalParams treats a quote character
> immediately after '=' as the start of a quoted value, so such values were
> misparsed (e.g. "''" round-tripped to "").
> Both cause encoded values to not round-trip correctly, so callers building
> local-params strings from arbitrary field values/keys could produce
> corrupted or unparseable queries.
> Fix: escape backslashes in addition to single quotes, and force quoting
> whenever the value starts with a quote character.
