CVE-2026-69151

High
7.6/10

Summary

Angular is a development platform for building mobile and desktop web applications using TypeScript/JavaScript and other languages. Prior to 20.3.27, 21.x prior to 21.2.19, and 22.x prior to 22.0.1, the Angular compiler i18n pipeline permits i18n-onerror and other i18n-on event-handler attributes, allowing a lower-trust translation file to replace a static handler with executable JavaScript. This issue is fixed in versions 20.3.27, 21.2.19, and 22.0.1.

CWE-79 - Cross Site Scripting

Cross-Site Scripting, commonly referred to as XSS, is the most dominant class of vulnerabilities. It allows an attacker to inject malicious code into a pregnable web application and victimize its users. The exploitation of such a weakness can cause severe issues such as account takeover, and sensitive data exfiltration. Because of the prevalence of XSS vulnerabilities and their high rate of exploitation, it has remained in the OWASP top 10 vulnerabilities for years.
