Fedora 37 : js-jquery-ui (2022-7291b78111)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 211314

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Fedora 37 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2022-7291b78111 advisory.

A flaw was found in the jquery-UI package. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site scripting (XSS) attack via the initialization of a check-box-radio widget on an input tag enclosed within a label, leading to the parent label contents being considered as the input label.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected js-jquery-ui package.
