Details

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting (XSS). load() 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. This can lead to Cross-site Scripting attacks when an attacker has control of the enclosed script.
