Recurring patterns

The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Unsanitized input values rendered into JavaScript contexts allow execution of arbitrary script code. Mitigating this requires server-side output validation and standard sanitization engines before values reach JSF response writers.

Prototype Pollution: The jQuery.extend method in older releases allows external attackers to modify the prototype of Object, leading to potential property injection or remote code execution.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): Multiple jQuery vulnerabilities related to self-closing HTML tags, DOM manipulation methods, and HTML execution via the main selector allow client-side script injection. Keeping jQuery persistently updated is critical.
