Elevated risk52th percentile - higher than 52% of all known CVEs
Summary
Prior to 20.3.32, 21.2.24, and 22.2.0, the @angular/router URL parser stores numeric matrix parameter names and numeric outlet names as properties on initially empty JavaScript objects during Node.js server-side rendering. V8 can interpret these URL-derived keys as array indices and allocate dense backing stores sized to high numeric values, so repeated small path segments cause disproportionate per-segment heap consumption. An unauthenticated attacker can send overlapping requests containing repeated numeric matrix parameters when SSR is enabled, the router directly parses the request URL, and upstream proxies allow semicolons and multiple path segments, eventually exhausting the Node.js old-space heap and terminating the SSR worker. Pure client-side Angular applications are not affected.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could cause memory exhaustion and termination of the SSR worker, resulting in denial of service for applications using server-side rendering.
Recommendation
Update Angular to version 20.3.32, 21.2.24, or 22.2.0 (or later) to fix the vulnerability.
Other vulnerabilities in Angular
See all- CVE-2026-88056Critical
Angular before 20.3.30, 21.2.22, and 22.1.4 has a server-side rendering (SSR) vulnerability in @angular/platform-server. The resolveUrl and parseUrl utilities call String.prototype.trim(), which removes leading Unicode whitespace after a same-origin check, converting a relative path into an attacker-controlled protocol-relative URL, leading to SSRF and credential disclosure.
- CVE-2026-101895High
Angular is a development platform for building mobile and desktop web applications using TypeScript/JavaScript and other languages. Prior to 20.3.31, 21.2.23, and 22.1.6, the @angular/platform-server DOM emulation parser can enter an infinite synchronous loop when Angular server-side rendering processes attacker-controlled HTML containing an incomplete DOCTYPE that ends with whitespace at end of input. In Domino lib/HTMLParser.js, after_doctype_name_state emits doctype and EOF tokens without advancing nextchar or leaving the fixed-lookahead state, so the scanner repeatedly handles the same EOF marker. A remote unauthenticated attacker can use this condition through server-side HTML parsing paths such as innerHTML binding to consume a Node.js SSR worker at full CPU, starve the event loop, and stop concurrent and subsequent requests. This issue is fixed in versions 20.3.31, 21.2.23, and 22.1.6.
- CVE-2026-88060Medium
Angular before 20.3.30, 21.2.22, and 22.1.4 has a server-side rendering (SSR) vulnerability in @angular/platform-server. Serialization of untrusted input inside fallback raw-content elements (noscript, iframe, noembed, noframes) fails to escape matching closing tags, enabling arbitrary JavaScript execution.
- CVE-2026-88059Medium
In Angular prior to 20.3.28, 21.2.20, and 22.1.1, @angular/common HttpTransferCache can cache an authenticated response when Server-Side Rendering (SSR) and hydration use a hierarchical HttpClient configured with withRequestsMadeViaParent. The child TransferCache evaluates an initially anonymous request before delegation, then a parent withInterceptors chain adds an Authorization header, cookie, or API token; although the parent cache skips the authenticated request, the child still stores the private response in TransferState serialized as JSON in the ng-state script. A later unauthenticated or unauthorized visitor can receive the cached HTML containing the earlier authenticated user's sensitive response data.
- CVE-2026-88058Medium
Angular before 20.3.30, 21.2.22, and 22.1.4 has a server-side rendering (SSR) vulnerability in @angular/platform-server. Serialization of ProcessingInstruction DOM nodes inside fallback raw-content elements fails to escape matching ancestor closing tags, allowing premature container termination and arbitrary JavaScript execution.
- CVE-2026-88057Medium
In Angular prior to 20.3.28, 21.2.20, and 22.1.0, the compiler and runtime in @angular/core and @angular/compiler could omit or select an incorrect sanitizer for security-sensitive directive host bindings because SecurityContext was derived from the declaring directive or component selector rather than the concrete host element. The mismatch is reachable through hostDirectives composition, inherited HostBinding declarations, createComponent with a custom hostElement or dynamic directives, SVG/MathML namespace elements, and tag-neutral selectors such as :not(...). Attacker-controlled href, src, action, xlink:href, or data values can therefore reach DOM attributes without Angular's built-in sanitizer and execute arbitrary JavaScript in the user's browser context.
- CVE-2026-69151Medium
Angular prior to versions 20.3.27, 21.2.19, and 22.0.1 contains a vulnerability in the Angular compiler i18n pipeline that permits i18n-onerror and other i18n-on event-handler attributes. This allows a lower-trust translation file to replace a static handler with executable JavaScript.
- CVE-2026-69149Medium
Angular prior to versions 20.3.27, 21.2.19, and 22.0.7 contains a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in @angular/platform-server's DOM emulation dependency (domino) when serializing the content of fallback raw-content elements (<iframe>, <noembed>, <noframes>, and <noscript>).
- CVE-2026-68945Medium
Angular prior to versions 20.3.27, 21.2.19, and 22.0.2 contains a vulnerability in HttpTransferCache that comma-joins repeated request parameters. This allows semantically distinct HttpClient requests to use the same transfer-cache key and reuse a wrong backend response.
- CVE-2026-50556Medium
A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Angular's @angular/platform-server component when serializing <noscript> elements during SSR. The domino library fails to escape </noscript> in dynamic content, allowing injection of malicious scripts.
