Practical Security Guides For Your Team

Your website uses an outdated version of a form validation library (jquery-validation) that has a known security flaw. Under specific conditions, an attacker who can influence the text of form error messages could inject malicious code that runs in your visitors' browsers. This requires a fairly specific setup to exploit, but the fix is straightforward: update the library.

Your web application uses an outdated version of AngularJS (a JavaScript framework) that contains a known flaw. A visitor could submit a specially crafted URL into a form field and cause your server or browser to freeze up while processing it, making your site slow or temporarily unresponsive for other users. This is a medium-severity issue — it doesn't expose data, but it can affect availability.
