During the most recent security scans of our systems the security team reported the jquery ui javascript files susceptible for the following CVE's:

• https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2016-7103/ (Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in jQuery UI before 1.12.0 might allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the closeText parameter of the dialog function. Publish Date : 2017-03-15 Last Update Date : 2022-02-07)

• https://www.cvedetails.com/cve-details.php?t=1&cve_id=CVE-2021-41182 (jQuery-UI is the official jQuery user interface library. Prior to version 1.13.0, accepting the value of the altField option of the Datepicker widget from untrusted sources may execute untrusted code. The issue is fixed in jQuery UI 1.13.0. Any string value passed to the altField option is now treated as a CSS selector. A workaround is to not accept the value of the altField option from untrusted sources.

• https://www.cvedetails.com/cve-details.php?t=1&cve_id=CVE-2021-41184 (jQuery-UI is the official jQuery user interface library. Prior to version 1.13.0, accepting the value of the of option of the .position() util from untrusted sources may execute untrusted code. The issue is fixed in jQuery UI 1.13.0.

• https://www.cvedetails.com/cve-details.php?t=1&cve_id=CVE-2021-41183 (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. Publish Date : 2021-10-26 Last Update Date : 2022-07-25)

• https://www.cvedetails.com/cve-details.php?t=1&cve_id=CVE-2022-31160 (jQuery UI is a curated set of user interface interactions, effects, widgets, and themes built on top of jQuery. Versions prior to 1.13.2 are potentially vulnerable to cross-site scripting. Initializing a checkboxradio widget on an input enclosed within a label makes that parent label contents considered as the input label. Calling .checkboxradio( "refresh" ) on such a widget and the initial HTML contained encoded HTML entities will make them erroneously get decoded. This can lead to potentially executing JavaScript code. The bug has been patched in jQuery UI 1.13.2. To remediate the issue, someone who can change the initial HTML can wrap all the non-input contents of the label in a span. Publish Date : 2022-07-20 Last Update Date : 2022-09-09)

Their advise is to upgrade to version 1.13.2 or later.
