Comment (by yitwail):

 I had to take the approach of filtering plugin output to remove javascript
 with embedded CDATA tags, and make it an external javascript file I'm
 enqueing. This creates extra code, an extra server request, and possible
 issues if the plugin is updated, but seems safer than updating the core. I
 sincerely hope someone sees fit to addressing this long-standing issue.
