SCA: security update for @angular/common (GHSA-p3vc-36g9-x9gr)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 443207

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 22.0.0-rc.2, 21.2.15, 20.3.22, and 19.2.23, a Denial
of Service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the @angular/common package of Angular. The formatNumber
function, which is also utilized by DecimalPipe, PercentPipe, and CurrencyPipe, does not properly validate
the upper bounds of the digitsInfo parameter. Specifically, the minimum and maximum fraction digits parsed
from the digitsInfo string (e.g., 1.2-4) are converted to integers and used without limits. When parsing a
maliciously crafted digitsInfo string with excessively large fraction digit values (e.g.,
1.200000000-200000000), the internal roundNumber function attempts to pad the digits array to match the
requested fraction size. This results in an unbounded loop that repeatedly pushes elements into an array.
This vulnerability is fixed in 22.0.0-rc.2, 21.2.15, 20.3.22, and 19.2.23. (CVE-2026-50171)

Solution

Update the @angular/common library and its related packages to version 19.2.23 or later.
