Retire your old stuff with retire.js

I’ve stumbled in an article on dzone 5 Quick Wins for Securing Continuous Delivery mentioning a javascript library to scan the given webpage for security vulnerabilities using retire.js. Note that it has an addon for Firefox and Chrome as well.

So I’ve installed the firefox addon, and for the good. Because I just learned the terrible truth: jquery versions 1.x and 2.x have some unfixed issues.

So I’ve updated the piler enterprise configs to use the most recent versions of jquery and other js libs from CDN networks, and now the addon is happy for piler enterprise GUI.

It’s actually a new config option, called JS_CODE in config.php, so you are able to fix it to use local versions of the used js libraries if your users are on a network without access to the Internet.
