SCA: security update for @angular/core (GHSA-692r-grfm-v8x7)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 443211

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, an issue
 in the @angular/core package allows bypassing script-execution restrictions during dynamic component
 creation. Specifically, the dynamic component instantiation mechanism (createComponent) failed to reject
 mounting components directly onto a <script> or namespaced script element (such as <svg:script>). This
 enabled the initialization of custom components on a tag that executes scripts, allowing attackers to
 hijack or inject script-executing hosts. This flaw enables an attacker who can control the host element or
 selector parameter passed to createComponent to initialize or mount an Angular component directly onto a
 <script> tag, leading to execution of untrusted code or client-side Cross-Site Scripting (XSS). This
 vulnerability is fixed in 22.0.0-rc.2, 21.2.15, 20.3.22, and 19.2.23. (CVE-2026-52725)

Solution

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