Hi David,
We’re always on the lookout for new security concerns and ways to counteract them. Since jQuery has the potential to be exploited and Storyline 360 no longer uses it, we removed jQuery from Storyline 360 on January 21, 2020. If you’re comfortable with jQuery, you can still use it to write custom JavaScript triggers. You just need to reference the jQuery library directly.
But what are these security concerns? I believe the last security vulnerability was prototype pollution, which was patched in May last year. The last major security concern was 3 years before that. jQuery is still actively maintained and if articulate kept jQuery updated there would be no concerns. So I ask again exactly what security concerns are Articulate addressing?
Why was there no consultation or warning that this was going to happen so that we could prepare for it?
