CVE intelligence and bounded remediation
CVE-2026-21821 — The HCL BigFix SCM Reporting site contains an outdated and unsupported version of the jQuery 1.x library
The HCL BigFix SCM Reporting site contains an outdated and unsupported version of the jQuery 1.x library. Since jQuery 1.x has reached end-of-life and no longer receives security updates, it may expose the application to publicly known security weaknesses and increase the risk of client-side attacks such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) or manipulation through vulnerable third-party components.

Matched remediation archetype
Supply-chain, dependency, build, and update integrity
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Trace affected packages, source archives, build actions, plugins, installers, and updates from declared source to deployed artifact.
- Confirm provenance, signatures or digests, namespace ownership, lockfile resolution, registry configuration, and build-runner trust boundaries.
- Inventory direct, transitive, vendored, generated, and bundled copies across releases and distribution channels.
Remediate safely
- Move to a maintained trusted artifact or remove the dependency; pin immutable identities and verify provenance and integrity before use.
- Regenerate lockfiles and artifacts in a clean isolated build, minimize build credentials and network access, and produce an updated software bill of materials.
- Require reviewed update policy, protected publishing, and reproducible or independently attestable builds where supported.
