Peter Wolanin created SOLR-4197:
-----------------------------------
Summary: EDismax allows end users to use local params in q= to
override global params
Key: SOLR-4197
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4197
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 4.0, 3.6, 3.5
Reporter: Peter Wolanin
Edismax is advertised as suitable to be used to "process advanced user input
directly". Thus, it would seem reasonable to have an application directly pass
user input in the q= parameter to a back-end Solr server.
However, it seems that users can enter local params at the start of q= which
override the global params that the application (e.g. website) may have set on
the query string. Confirmed with Erik Hatcher that this is somewhat unexpected
behavior (though one could argue it's an expected feature of any query parser)
Proposed fix - add a parameter (e.g. that can be used as an invariant) that can
be passed to inhibit Solr from using local params from the q= parameter.
This is somewhat related to SOLR-1687
