Synopsis

jQuery UI < 1.12.0 Cross-Site Scripting

Description

According to its self-reported version number, jQuery UI is prior to 1.12.0. Therefore, it may be affected by a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability due to improper escaping of the closeText property.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to jQuery UI version 1.12.0 or later.
