Security Advisories (9)
CVE-2020-11022 (2020-04-29)

In jQuery versions greater than or equal to 1.2 and before 3.5.0, passing HTML from untrusted sources - even after sanitizing it - to one of jQuery's DOM manipulation methods (i.e. .html(), .append(), and others) may execute untrusted code. This problem is patched in jQuery 3.5.0.

CVE-2020-11023 (2020-04-29)

In jQuery versions greater than or equal to 1.0.3 and before 3.5.0, passing HTML containing <option> elements from untrusted sources - even after sanitizing it - to one of jQuery's DOM manipulation methods (i.e. .html(), .append(), and others) may execute untrusted code. This problem is patched in jQuery 3.5.0.

CVE-2019-11358 (2019-04-20)

jQuery before 3.4.0, as used in Drupal, Backdrop CMS, and other products, mishandles jQuery.extend(true, {}, ...) because of Object.prototype pollution. If an unsanitized source object contained an enumerable __proto__ property, it could extend the native Object.prototype.

CVE-2015-9251 (2018-01-18)

jQuery before 3.0.0 is vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks when a cross-domain Ajax request is performed without the dataType option, causing text/javascript responses to be executed.

CVE-2011-4969 (2013-03-08)

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in jQuery before 1.6.3, when using location.hash to select elements, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted tag.

CVE-2012-6708 (2018-01-18)

jQuery before 1.9.0 is vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS) attacks. 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 '<' 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 '<' character, limiting exploitability only to attackers who can control the beginning of a string, which is far less common.

CVE-2020-7656 (2020-05-19)

jquery prior to 1.9.0 allows Cross-site Scripting attacks via the load method. The load method fails to recognize and remove "<script>" HTML tags that contain a whitespace character, i.e: "</script >", which results in the enclosed script logic to be executed.

CVE-2019-5428

Prototype Pollution is a vulnerability affecting JavaScript. Prototype Pollution refers to the ability to inject properties into existing JavaScript language construct prototypes, such as objects. JavaScript allows all Object attributes to be altered, including their magical attributes such as _proto_, constructor and prototype. An attacker manipulates these attributes to overwrite, or pollute, a JavaScript application object prototype of the base object by injecting other values. Properties on the Object.prototype are then inherited by all the JavaScript objects through the prototype chain. When that happens, this leads to either denial of service by triggering JavaScript exceptions, or it tampers with the application source code to force the code path that the attacker injects, thereby leading to remote code execution.

CVE-2014-6071 (2018-01-16)

jQuery 1.4.2 allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via vectors related to use of the text method inside after.

NAME

Yancy - A simple framework and editor for content-driven Mojolicious websites

VERSION

version 1.049

SYNOPSIS

use Mojolicious::Lite;
use Mojo::Pg; # Supported backends: Pg, MySQL, SQLite, DBIx::Class
plugin Yancy => {
    backend => { Pg => Mojo::Pg->new( 'postgres:///myapp' ) },
    read_schema => 1,
};

DESCRIPTION

Screenshot of list of Futurama characters
Screenshot of editing form for a person

Yancy is a simple content management system (CMS) for administering content in a database. Yancy accepts a configuration file that describes the data in the database and builds a website that lists all of the available data and allows a user to edit data, delete data, and add new data.

Yancy uses JSON Schema to define the data in the database. The schema is added to an OpenAPI specification which creates a REST API for your data.

Yancy can be run in a standalone mode (which can be placed behind a proxy), or can be embedded as a plugin into any application that uses the Mojolicious web framework.

Yancy can manage data in multiple databases using different backends (Yancy::Backend modules). Backends exist for Postgres via Mojo::Pg, MySQL via Mojo::mysql, SQLite via Mojo::SQLite, and DBIx::Class, a Perl ORM

Mojolicious Plugin

Yancy is primarily a Mojolicious plugin to ease development and management of Mojolicious applications. Yancy provides:

For information on how to use Yancy as a Mojolicious plugin, see Mojolicious::Plugin::Yancy.

Example Applications

The Yancy Git repository on Github includes some example applications you can use to help build your own websites. View the example application directory.

Yancy Plugins

Yancy comes with plugins to enhance your website.

More development will be happening here soon!

Standalone App

Yancy can also be run as a standalone app in the event one wants to develop applications solely using Mojolicious templates. For information on how to run Yancy as a standalone application, see Yancy::Help::Standalone.

REST API

This application creates a REST API using the standard OpenAPI API specification. The API spec document is located at /yancy/api.
