Vulnerability Details
Hi. Sorry for taking the time with this report. This is already publicly disclosed issue at -[https://github.com/makeusabrew/bootbox/issues/661](https://github.com/makeusabrew/bootbox/issues/661) In essence all dialogs of bootbox vulnurable to XSS injections ( bootbox.alert("\<script\>alert(1);\</script\>"); ) This is apparently a feature to allow injecting HTML in messages but it is not very clear from the documentation. Even though this issue has been reported for a while no changes were made to fix this issue or even update the documentation Kind Regards, Yoni ## Impact Websites using bootbox to display messages containing user input are vulnerable to XSS
