How to Fix GHSA-mpjf-8cmf-p789

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Jingo dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

jingo fixed: 1.9.2 
npm install jingo@1.9.2
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

npm ls jingo

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by GHSA-mpjf-8cmf-p789, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls jingo

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Jingo in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.9.2), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls jingo command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-79: Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting'), where the product does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes user-controllable input before it is placed in output that is used as a web page that is served to other users. In Jingo, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

Versions of `jingo` prior to 1.9.2 are vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). If malicious input such as `<script>alert(1)</script>` is placed in the content of a wiki page, Jingo does not properly encode the input and it is executed instead of rendered as text. ## Recommendation Upgrade to version 1.9.2
