QID 980904

QID 980904: Nodejs (npm) Security Update for mapbox.js (GHSA-qr28-7j6p-9hmv)

Versions 1.x prior to 1.6.5 and 2.x prior to 2.1.7 of `mapbox.js` are vulnerable to a cross-site-scripting attack in certain uncommon usage scenarios.

If `L.mapbox.map` or `L.mapbox.tileLayer` are used to load untrusted TileJSON content from a non-Mapbox URL, it is possible for a malicious user with control over the TileJSON content to inject script content into the "attribution" value of the TileJSON which will be executed in the context of the page using Mapbox.js.

## Recommendation

Version 2.x: Update to version 2.1.7 or later.
Version 1.x: Update to version 1.6.5 or later.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may affect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the targeted user.
