Vulnerability Details

A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in the Angular Template Compiler. The vulnerability exists because Angular’s internal sanitization schema fails to recognize the "href" and "xlink:href" attributes of SVG "<script>" elements as a Resource URL context. In a standard security model, attributes that can load and execute code (like a script's source) should be strictly validated. However, because the compiler does not classify these specific SVG attributes correctly, it allows attackers to bypass Angular's built-in security protections. When template binding is used to assign user-controlled data to these attributes for example, "<script [attr.href]="userInput">" the compiler treats the value as a standard string or a non-sensitive URL rather than a resource link. This enables an attacker to provide a malicious payload, such as a "data:text/javascript" URI or a link to an external malicious script. Impact When successfully exploited, this vulnerability allows for arbitrary JavaScript execution within the context of the victim's browser session. This can lead to: - Session Hijacking: Stealing session cookies, localStorage data, or authentication tokens. - Data Exfiltration: Accessing and transmitting sensitive information displayed within the application. - Unauthorized Actions: Performing state-changing actions (like clicking buttons or submitting forms) on behalf of the authenticated user. Attack Preconditions 1. The victim application must explicitly use SVG "<script>" elements within its templates. 2. The application must use property or attribute binding (interpolation) for the "href" or "xlink:href" attributes of those SVG scripts. 3. The data bound to these attributes must be derived from an untrusted source (e.g., URL parameters, user-submitted database entries, or unsanitized API responses). Patches - 19.2.18 - 20.3.16 - 21.0.7 - 21.1.0-rc.0 Workarounds Until the patch is applied, developers should: - Avoid Dynamic Bindings: Do not use Angular template binding (e.g., "[attr.href]") for SVG "<script>" elements. - Input Validation: If dynamic values must be used, strictly validate the input against a strict allowlist of trusted URLs on the server side or before it reaches the template.

Vulnerability Details

Angular is a development platform for building mobile and desktop web applications using TypeScript/JavaScript and other languages. Prior to 21.0.2, 20.3.15, and 19.2.17, A Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability has been identified in the Angular Template Compiler. It occurs because the compiler's internal security schema is incomplete, allowing attackers to bypass Angular's built-in security sanitization. Specifically, the schema fails to classify certain URL-holding attributes (e.g., those that could contain javascript: URLs) as requiring strict URL security, enabling the injection of malicious scripts. This vulnerability is fixed in 21.0.2, 20.3.15, and 19.2.17.
