## Affected

- Progress Software Kendo UI for jQuery: from 2023.1.117, fixed in 2026.3.1015

## Description

In Progress® Kendo® UI for jQuery versions starting with v2023.1.117 and prior to v2026.3.1015, the FileBrowser and ImageBrowser components render remotely supplied file and directory names as HTML without proper encoding. An attacker-controlled name containing script-related HTML can execute JavaScript in the user's browser, compromising the confidentiality and integrity of data accessible to the affected application.
