Hi, Ilja, alas we manage our JS dependencies a bit differently than our Java 
dependencies. [1] In the case of Mirage2, Bower is used to fetch jQuery, and 
the version is specified with a tilde, which according to NPM translates to 
"close enough to."[2][3]

I have made a Jira ticket for upgrading our jQuery version with the UIs we have 
right now [4]. As Tim said previously, we welcome a pull request to address 
this.

At routine system scan by our IT department noticed, that mirage theme uses 
jQuery version 1.6.2, which is vulnerable to a XSS attack [1]. I don't know if 
this actually exploitable in DSpace, but anyway it seems that this is fixable 
by simple bumping the version to 1.6.4. Is it worth of making a pull request to 
fix this?
