 * Hi,
 * I just installed Autoptimize and it solved a number of page speed problems, which
   is awesome. However, I am also getting dinged now by Lighthouse for javascript
   vulnerabilities (2 of them) associated with [jQuery@1.12](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/javascript-vulnerabilities-reported-by-lighthouse/jQuery@1.12?output_format=md).
   4.
 * It seems like the fix is just to call an updated library where the vulnerabilities
   are fixed. Are there plans to do this?
 * Best,
    Jonathan
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fjavascript-vulnerabilities-reported-by-lighthouse%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Autoptimize does not come with jQuery of it’s own, but simply aggregates the 
   one that comes with WordPress core which indeed is … older. More info can be 
   found in [this core ticket](https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/37110).
 * hope this clarifies,
    frank
