Angular 20.x < 20.3.27 Cross-Site Scripting

high Web App Scanning Plugin ID 115591

Synopsis

Angular 20.x < 20.3.27 Cross-Site Scripting

Description

According to its self-reported version number, Angular is prior to 20.0.0, 20.x prior to 20.3.27, 21.x prior to 21.2.19 or 22.x prior to 22.0.7. It is, therefore, affected by a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the DOM emulation dependency (domino) of @angular/platform-server. Text nodes within fallback raw-content elements (<iframe>, <noembed>, <noframes> and <noscript>) are not escaped during SSR serialization, allowing an injected closing tag to break out of the element and execute a script. (CVE-2026-69149)

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Angular version 20.3.27 or later.
