NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rh-ror50-rubygem-jquery-rails.src package and not the rh-ror50-rubygem-jquery-rails.src package as distributed by RHEL.
jquery prior to 1.9.0 allows Cross-site Scripting attacks via the load method. The load method 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.
