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

Yote::YoteRoot

DESCRIPTION

The yote root is the main app of the class. It is also always object id 1 and sits at the head of the yote data tree. Yote::YoteRoot is a subclass of Yote::AppRoot.

DATA

PUBLIC API METHODS

fetch( id_list )

Returns the list of the objects to the client provided the client is authroized to receive them.

fetch_app_by_class( package_name )

Returns the app object singleton of the given package name.

fetch_root( package_name )

Returns the singleton root object. It creates it if it has not been created.

guest_token

Creates and returns a guest token, associating it with the calling IP address.

is_root

Returns true if the account passed in is a root account.

login( { h: handle, p : password } )

Attempts to log the account in with the given credentials. Returns a data structre with the login token and the login object.

logout

Invalidates the tokens of the currently logged in user.

make_root

Takes a login as an argument and makes it root. Throws access error if the callee is not root.

init - takes a hash of args, passing them to a new Yote::SQLite object and starting it up.
purge_app

This method may only be invoked by a login with the root bit set. This clears out the app entirely.

recover_password( { e : email, u : a_url_the_person_requested_recovery, t : reset_url_for_system } )

Causes an email with a recovery link sent to the email in question, if it is associated with an account.

recovery_reset_password( { p : newpassword, p2 : newpasswordverify, t : recovery_token } )

Resets the password ( kepts hashed in the database ) for the account that the recovery token belongs to. Returns the url_the_person_requested_recovery that was given in the recover_password call.

remove_login( { h : handle, e : email, p : password } )

Purges the login account from the system if its credentials are verified. It moves the account to a special removed logins hidden field under the yote root.

remove_root( login )

Removes the root bit from the login.

create_login( args )

Create a login with the given client supplied args : h => handle, e => email, p => password. This checks to make sure handle and email address are not already taken. This is invoked by the javascript call $.yote.create_login( handle, password, email )

cron

Returns the cron. Only a root login may call this.
