Severity ?
Summary
XSS in the `of` option of the `.position()` util in jquery-ui
Details
Impact
Accepting the value of the of
option of the .position()
util from untrusted sources may execute untrusted code. For example, invoking the following code:
js
$( "#element" ).position( {
my: "left top",
at: "right bottom",
of: "<img onerror='doEvilThing()' src='/404' />",
collision: "none"
} );
will call the doEvilThing()
function.
Patches
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.
Workarounds
A workaround is to not accept the value of the of
option from untrusted sources.
