avg threat alert from jquery

Recommended Posts

A visitor of my site sent in a screen shot of a avg threat alert. The alert mentions the jquery 1.4 minified file.

Has anyone experience this? Is the minification of the file is what is triggering the alert? I suspect if I tried the development version of jquery that there might not be an issue.

Quite possible. Exploits have be executed through javascript and would typically be obfuscated, so AVG may alert simply because it is minified (obfuscated to AVG).

I'd say test it out with the minified and dev file. I know I'm curious to see.

I use jQuery quite a bit and haven't had this problem.
