Synopsis

The remote CentOS host is missing a security update for cpp.

Description

The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the gcc-11.5.0-5.el9 build changelog.

 - In jQuery versions greater than or equal to 1.0.3 and before 3.5.0, passing HTML containing <option> elements from untrusted sources - even after sanitizing it - to one of jQuery's DOM manipulation methods (i.e. .html(), .append(), and others) may execute untrusted code. This problem is patched in jQuery 3.5.0.
