Overview

angular is a package that lets you write client-side web applications as if you had a smarter browser. It also lets you use HTML as your template language and lets you extend HTML’s syntax to express your application’s components clearly and succinctly.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Execution. $parse allowed arbitrary code execution via Angular expressions under some very specific conditions. The only applications affected by these vulnerabilities are those that match all of the following conditions:

  • Application mixes server-side and client-side templating
  • The server-side templating contains XSS vulnerabilities
  • The vulnerabilities in the server-side templating are being guarded by server-side XSS filters or on the client-side via CSP
  • The server-side XSS vulnerabilities can be used to augment the client-side template processed by Angular Applications not meeting all of the conditions are not vulnerable.
