A flaw was found in jquery in versions prior to 1.9.0. A cross-site scripting attack is possible as the load method fails to recognize and remove "<script>" HTML tags that contain a whitespace character which results in the enclosed script logic to be executed. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity.

Apache Tomcat could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a file read/inclusion vulnerability in the AJP connector. By sending a specially-crafted request, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to read web application files from a vulnerable server and upload malicious JavaServer Pages (JSP) code within a variety of file types and execute arbitrary code on the system.

Note: This vulnerability is known as Ghostcat.
