Summary

angular.js prior to 1.8.0 allows cross site scripting. The regex-based input HTML replacement may turn sanitized code into unsanitized one. Wrapping "<option>" elements in "<select>" ones changes parsing behavior, leading to possibly unsanitizing code.

Patch / fix

  • npm angular 1.8.0
  • angularjs angularjs 1.8.0
  • angular.js Debian 13, Debian 12 1.8.0-1
