  Vulnerability Details
  CVEID:   CVE-2020-11023
  DESCRIPTION:   jQuery is vulnerable to cross-site scripting,
  caused by improper validation of user-supplied input by the
  option elements. A remote attacker could exploit this

  would be executed in a victim's Web browser within the security
  context of the hosting Web site, once the page is viewed. An
  attacker could use this vulnerability to steal the victim's
  cookie-based authentication credentials.
