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 &#39;&lt;&#39; 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 &#39;&lt;&#39; character, limiting exploitability only to attackers who can control the beginning of a string, which is far less common.</p> <p>jQuery before 1.9.0 is vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks.
