medium Web App Scanning Plugin ID 112374

Synopsis

Bootstrap 4.0.0 < 4.1.2 Cross-Site Scripting

Description

According to its self-reported version number, Bootstrap is at least 4.0.0 and prior to 4.1.2. Therefore, it may be affected by a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability via the tooltip, collapse and scrollspy plugins.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Bootstrap version 4.1.2 or later.
