Technical details
A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in @angular/platform-server's DOM emulation dependency (domino) during the serialization of <noscript> elements. When using Server-Side Rendering (SSR), domino treats <noscript> as a raw-text element but fails to escape closing tags (</noscript>) within bound dynamic text. An attacker can provide input containing a closing tag to break out of the <noscript> block and inject executable <script> tags. This occurs because the domino serializer omitted <noscript> from the list of elements requiring closing-tag escaping. The vulnerability is fixed in versions 22.0.0-rc.2, 21.2.16, 20.3.24, and 19.2.25.
