SCA: security update for @angular/compiler (GHSA-58w9-8g37-x9v5)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443196

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 22.0.1, 21.2.17, and 20.3.25, an issue in the
 @angular/compiler package allows bypassing DOM property sanitization through the use of two-way property
 bindings. Specifically, when a native DOM property that requires sanitization (such as innerHTML, srcdoc,
 src, href, data, or sandbox) is bound using the two-way binding syntax (e.g., [(innerHTML)]="value" or
 bindon-innerHTML="value"), the Angular template compiler failed to apply the appropriate schema-derived
 sanitizer resolution to the TwoWayProperty operation. As a result, native two-way DOM bindings were
 emitted without the required sanitizer function, whereas equivalent one-way bindings would be properly
 sanitized. This flaw enables an attacker who can control the value of a two-way bound sensitive property
 to bypass Angular's built-in sanitization logic, potentially leading to client-side Cross-Site Scripting
 (XSS). This vulnerability is fixed in 22.0.1, 21.2.17, and 20.3.25. (CVE-2026-54265)

Solution

Update the @angular/compiler library and its related packages to version 20.3.25 or later.
