Cross-Site Scripting in yui
Packages
Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
Affected versions of `yui` are vulnerable to cross-site scripting in the `uploader.swf` and `io.swf` utilities, via script injection in the url.
## Recommendation
YUI has published their recommendation to fix this issue.
Their recommendation is to:
- Delete self-hosted copies of these files if you are not using them
- Use the Yahoo! CDN hosted files
- Use the patched files provided on the YUI Library [here](https://yuilibrary.com/support/20130515-vulnerability/#resolution).
