   Probably time to upgrade anyway. What are they finding?

Whilst its possible we could patch the vulnerability (or it perhaps isn't even serious for SwingJS deployments), scanners will still see the version number and most likely complain. I've had a go at porting the patches in swingjs2.js to the latest release of jQuery, this seemed to work OK - but I've now got issues with JQueryUI.

   Mostly they're just detecting that jquery 1.11 is luring inside swingjs/swingjs2.js - this is picked up by retire.js. I can see that Jmol's demo pages don't get flagged - since Jmol-SwingJS bundles jQuery v3.7.4. I guess the simplest thing would be to rebuild against the unified SwingJS/Jmol-SwingJS runtime ?

   It's just copying Jmol-SwingJS.zip <https://github.com/BobHanson/Jmol-SwingJS/blob/master/dist/Jmol-SwingJS.zip> into your appropriate (?) resource/ directory and then running a build again. I can't remember exactly which directory that is for you. Also there was something about Java 11. But that may have only been for the compiling of the Jalview code itself, not this library.
