The remote Ubuntu 18.04 ESM / 20.04 ESM / 22.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5181-1 advisory.
jQuery-UI is the official jQuery user interface library. Prior to version 1.13.0, accepting the value of the of
option of the .position()
util from untrusted sources may execute untrusted code. The issue is fixed in jQuery UI 1.13.0. Any string value passed to the of
option is now treated as a CSS selector. A workaround is to not accept the value of the of
option from untrusted sources. (CVE-2021-41184)
jQuery UI is a curated set of user interface interactions, effects, widgets, and themes built on top of jQuery. Versions prior to 1.13.2 are potentially vulnerable to cross-site scripting. Initializing a checkboxradio widget on an input enclosed within a label makes that parent label contents considered as the input label. Calling .checkboxradio( refresh )
on such a widget and the initial HTML contained encoded HTML entities will make them erroneously get decoded. This can lead to potentially executing JavaScript code. The bug has been patched in jQuery UI 1.13.2. To remediate the issue, someone who can change the initial HTML can wrap all the non-input contents of the label
in a span
. (CVE-2022-31160)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
