Front-end JavaScript libraries with known security vulnerabilities

[cprats]

After running a Lighthouse audit on several sites using thirty bees and other using PrestaShop, I've seen the following warning:

Front-end JavaScript libraries with known security vulnerabilities: Library version: [email protected]

It is recommended to upgrade jquery to version 3.0.0 or higher.

Is there any fix for that?

You need to upgrade jquery. I found https://catalogo-onlinersi.net/en/add-ons-prestashop-modules/301-jquery-automatic-update-prestashop.html

*I never tried this module

It is recommended to upgrade jquery to version 3.0.0 or higher.

... which pretty much translates to "it is recommended to break all themes and front office modules".

I had a look at this "vulnerability". It's exploitable only if the calling code has a bug as well.

@traumflug Thank-you so much for clarification.

Hi,

WordPress is still in [email protected]

You can find more information why jQuery v1 is still in use here (and it's probably for a good reason): https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/244537/why-does-wordpress-use-outdated-jquery-v1-12-4
