doesnt have to be literally "hacked", just a change of the dns records is enough.



Well, once you hotlink jquery in your website at least use the https link (assuming your site is on https too).


No need; the browser will block http:// included from https:// pages. Including from a http:// page? Then a compromised jquery cdn is the least of your worries.

In short; no, just a compromised dns record is not enough.


if it is a http:// page, then even a small change in the local host file is enough.
