SCA: security update for @angular/compiler (GHSA-v4hv-rgfq-gp49)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 437259

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Angular is a development platform for building mobile and desktop web applications using
TypeScript/JavaScript and other languages. Prior to 21.0.2, 20.3.15, and 19.2.17, A Stored Cross-Site
Scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in the Angular Template Compiler. It occurs because the
compiler's internal security schema is incomplete, allowing attackers to bypass Angular's built-in
security sanitization. Specifically, the schema fails to classify certain URL-holding attributes (e.g.,
those that could contain javascript: URLs) as requiring strict URL security, enabling the injection of
malicious scripts. This vulnerability is fixed in 21.0.2, 20.3.15, and 19.2.17. (CVE-2025-66412)
