Angular 21.x < 21.2.4 Cross-Site Scripting

high Web App Scanning Plugin ID 115617

Synopsis

Angular 21.x < 21.2.4 Cross-Site Scripting

Description

According to its self-reported version number, Angular is 17.x to 18.2.14, 19.x prior to 19.2.20, 20.x prior to 20.3.18 or 21.x prior to 21.2.4. It is, therefore, affected by a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in @angular/core and @angular/compiler. Enabling internationalization on a security-sensitive attribute (such as href) with an i18n-<attribute> attribute bypasses the built-in sanitization of data bindings. (CVE-2026-32635)

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 21.2.4 or later.
