RISE generated web content contains outdated version of JQuery
Hi Alyssa, thank you for the response. While you may not have a defect that is causing a vulnerability, you must realize that any content that is generated by articulate and then looked at in a web browser by a security team will point out the outdated version. If your customers are using Rise to create content for their own customers who may do a security review of their site, this could cause them to lose a possible sale. This is how it affects us. If you are not going to keep your 3rd party dependencies up to date, I will be forced to redo our security analysis of articulate/rise to be categorically high risk and will have to instruct the business to find an alternate vendor. Does that help you understand the situation we're in? Currently, any time we place Rise content anywhere in an application it gets immediately flagged by our security scanning systems as well our pen-testing crew due to the outdated library. This will happen for other clients as well, and it may impact them similarly if they get reviewed by a security audit. Please let me know if there is anything additional you can do in order to ensure that articulate/rise is following security best practices.
