More information:

Shadowman131 discovered that jqueryui, a JavaScript UI library for dynamic web applications, failed to properly sanitize its title option. This would allow a remote attacker to inject arbitrary code through cross-site scripting.

For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 1.8.ooops.21+dfsg-2+deb7u1.

For the stable distribution (jessie), testing distribution (stretch) and unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.10.1+dfsg-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your jqueryui packages.
