jQuery Update - Less Critical - Open Redirect - SA-CONTRIB-2015-158

The jQuery Update module enables you to update jQuery on your site.

The module ships with a modified version of the core Overlay JavaScript file, which is vulnerable to an open redirect attack (see SA-CORE-2015-004).

Only sites with the Overlay module enabled are vulnerable.

An incomplete fix for this issue was released in SA-CONTRIB-2015-123.
