High CVSS 7.1

Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in JavaScript Library jquery-ui v.1.13.1 allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information and execute arbitrary code via a crafted payload to the window.addEventListener component. NOTE: this is disputed by the Supplier because it cannot be reproduced, and because the exploitation example does not indicate whether, or how, the example website is using jQuery UI.

Matched remediation archetype

Cross-site scripting and unsafe browser output

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Trace reflected, stored, and DOM-derived untrusted values into HTML, attributes, URLs, styles, scripts, and client-side template sinks.
  • Identify affected origins, authenticated user roles, sensitive browser capabilities, and where content is shared across tenants.
  • Review framework escaping, rich-text sanitization, legacy templates, and client-side rendering paths.

Remediate safely

  • Use context-aware framework output encoding and safe DOM APIs; keep untrusted data out of executable contexts.
  • Sanitize intentionally supported markup with a maintained allowlist policy and validate URLs and attributes separately.
  • Update affected rendering components and add tests for every output context using inert sentinel markup.
