GHSA-q4m3-2j7h-f7xwMediumCVSS 6.1
Cross-Site Scripting in jquery
🔗 CVE IDs covered (1)
📋 Description
Versions of jquery prior to 1.9.0 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting. The load method fails to recognize and remove <script> HTML tags that contain a whitespace character, i.e: </script >, which results in the enclosed script logic to be executed. This allows attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript in a victim's browser.
Recommendation
Upgrade to version 1.9.0 or later.
