gettext.js is a GNU gettext port for node and the browser. There is a cross-site scripting (XSS) injection if .po dictionary definition files are corrupted. This vulnerability has been patched in version 2.0.3. As a workaround, control the origin of the definition catalog to prevent the use of this flaw in the definition of plural forms.
