Description Marcus Meissner 2021-09-20 07:07:14 UTC 
http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2020-11023 

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.
Comment 1 Marcus Meissner 2021-09-20 07:21:16 UTC 
while we do not ship jquery as standalone package, it is embedded in various packages:

python*-Sphinx:

The embedded jquery uses only html code injected is coming from Sphinx locally, its not attacker influencable. (for local Sphinx documentation browsing and searching)

python*-greenlet:

The embedded jquery uses only html code injected is coming from greenlet locally, its not attacker influencable. (for local Sphinx documentation browsing and searching)

python*-Werkzeug:

The embedded jquery is used in the embedded interactive debugger to debug WSGI applications. It helps with the debugger operation and does not get malicious input.
