Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from insufficient input validation in the setLogid method. The patch introduced a regex check ([\w-]+) and exception handling, indicating prior lack of XSS-safe validation. The function directly processes user-controlled LOGID parameter and was vulnerable to script injection before proper sanitization was added. SolrTools.escapeSpecialCharacters() alone doesn't prevent HTML/JS context XSS, making this the clear injection point.
