Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to server-side request forgery in Angular server-side rendering URL handling when processing protocol-relative or backslash-prefixed request URLs. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request URL to disclose sensitive information.

Exploitation requires the application to use Angular SSR via renderModule, renderApplication, or CommonEngine, pass a pathname as the URL to the rendering method, and perform server-side HTTP requests with relative URLs or use PlatformLocation.hostname to build URLs.
