Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2021-11-01 17:21:54 UTC

jQuery-UI is the official jQuery user interface library. Prior to version 1.13.0, accepting the value of various `*Text` options of the Datepicker widget from untrusted sources may execute untrusted code. The issue is fixed in jQuery UI 1.13.0. The values passed to various `*Text` options are now always treated as pure text, not HTML. A workaround is to not accept the value of the `*Text` options from untrusted sources.

Created js-jquery-ui tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: epel-all [bug 2019150]
Affects: fedora-all [bug 2019149]


Created pcs tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 2019151]

Comment 3 Garrett Tucker 2021-11-11 20:29:19 UTC

After review, RHEL is unaffected as there is no instance of pcs using the affected widget. While pcs does make use of jequery-ui, it is limited in usage and scope and there is no use of the datepicker widget or '*Text' option in pcs.
