The jQuery(strInput) function does not differentiate selectors from HTML in a reliable fashion. In vulnerable versions, jQuery determined whether the input was HTML by looking for the '\u003c' character anywhere in the string, giving attackers more flexibility when attempting to construct a malicious payload. In fixed versions, jQuery only deems the input to be HTML if it explicitly starts with the '\u003c' character, limiting exploitability only to attackers who can control the beginning of a string, which is far less common.\n\n\u003cp\u003ePublish Date: 2018-01-18\n\u003cp\u003eURL: \u003ca href=https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-6708\u003eCVE-2012-6708\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003cimg src='https://whitesource-resources.whitesourcesoftware.com/cvss3.png' width=19 height=20\u003e CVSS 3 Score Details (\u003cb\u003e6.1\u003c/b\u003e)\u003c/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\nBase Score Metrics:\n- Exploitability Metrics:\n  - Attack Vector: Network\n  - Attack Complexity: Low\n  - Privileges Required: None\n  - User Interaction: Required\n  - Scope: Changed\n- Impact Metrics:\n  - Confidentiality Impact: Low\n  - Integrity Impact: Low\n  - Availability Impact: None\n\u003c/p\u003e\nFor more information on CVSS3 Scores, click \u003ca href=\"https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/3.0\"\u003ehere\u003c/a\u003e.\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003cimg src='https://whitesource-resources.whitesourcesoftware.com/suggested_fix.png' width=19 height=20\u003e Suggested Fix\u003c/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eType: Upgrade version\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin: \u003ca href=\"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2012-6708\"\u003ehttps://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2012-6708\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelease Date: 2018-01-18\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFix Resolution: jQuery - v1.9.0\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003c/details\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\n***\nStep up your Open Source Security Game with WhiteSource [here](https://www.whitesourcesoftware.com/full_solution_bolt_github)","author":{"url":"https://github.com/mend-bolt-for-github[bot]","@type":"Person","name":"mend-bolt-for-github[bot]"},"datePublished":"2019-11-01T18:48:26.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/13/JavaScriptAndMVVMandMVC/issues/13"}
