Debian DLA-2127-1 : dojo security update

medium Nessus Plugin ID 134178

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

dojox was vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting. This was due to dojox.xmpp.util.xmlEncode only encoding the first occurrence of each character, not all of them.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version 1.10.2+dfsg-1+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your dojo packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
