Hi,
The recent version has a dependency on jQuery 1.12.4. This is strange for me as previous versions were including 1.12.3. The version 1.12.4 has a serious security vulnerability https://snyk.io/test/npm/jquery/1.12.4?severity=high&severity=medium&severity=low . On the other hand 1.12.3 does not have it https://snyk.io/test/npm/jquery/1.12.3?severity=high&severity=medium&severity=low.
So my questions:
1) Why the version was upgraded?
2) Is it save to replace jquery.min.js content with the 1.12.3 version ?
3) Is it save to replace jquery.min.js content with the 3.x version ? I have found the compatibility list for UI for jQuery (https://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/intro/installation/prerequisites#supported-jquery-versions) - I hope MVC is the same code with additional MVC wrappers.
