CVE-2026-124686 · Package
NO FIX YET · SEE WHAT TO DO
Kendo UI for jQuery's kendo.init() passes data-* attribute values to new Function when the JSON is invalid, so attacker-controlled attribute text runs as JavaScript. An attacker with low privileges who can set those attributes can read or change data in the victim's browser session when the page loads or is used.

Could this affect your app?
Free first check from your website. Connect your repo for the full answer.
Applications that use Kendo UI for jQuery and render user-controllable content into data-* attributes on pages that call kendo.init() or initialize widgets declaratively. Apps that do not use the jQuery build of Kendo UI, or that never place untrusted text in those attributes, are less exposed. The sources do not state the first affected release.
