SCA: security update for @angular/router (GHSA-57xq-rjx2-v5xh)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 476384

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. From 21.2.0 until 21.2.25 and 22.2.1, RouterLink directives
rendered during Node.js server-side rendering retain computed UrlTree instances for the lifetime of each
request. When queryParamsHandling is set to merge or preserve, either per link or through
defaultQueryParamsHandling, every rendered link can retain a copy of attacker-controlled query parameters
in its UrlTree. When upstream proxies or load balancers forward oversized query strings without rejecting
them at the edge, multiple affected links and overlapping renders can amplify heap use until the Node.js
old-space heap is exhausted and the SSR worker terminates. Numeric query-parameter names increase
allocation pressure but are not required, memory is released after rendering completes, and pure client-
side SPAs are not affected. This issue is fixed in versions 21.2.25 and 22.2.1. (CVE-2026-111751)

Solution

Update the @angular/router library and its related packages to version 21.2.25 or later.
