Description Martin Prpič 2016-07-26 12:00:52 UTC 
It was found that jQuery-UI, a library for manipulating UI elements via jQuery, has a cross site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the closeText parameter of the dialog function. If an application passes user input to this parameter, it may be vulnerable to XSS.

I have downgraded the impact to low as its unlikely that a user controlled variable would be passed to the dialog box close field
