Good day, 

I recently noticed that when some solr queries are built up there is no
escaping of certain characters such as colons (:)  Strings are accepted
as is, which results in error. 

http://opencast.jira.com/browse/MH-8924 

Is there a recommended format for strings that are passed to these
queries ? Could accepting non-escaped strings, such as the lti string in
the ticket I have highlighted, not be a potential security flaw? 

Regards, 

Edmore Moyo
