What is CVE-2026-50168?

A vulnerability in Angular's @angular/platform-server package allows remote attackers to bypass host allowlist constraints, leading to the potential for Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks. This occurs due to discrepancies between the strict WHATWG URL parser and the lenient Domino URL parser used in server-side operations. Specifically, malformed URLs containing a double port structure can be accepted by Domino, while being rejected by Node's strict URL parser. Consequently, this enables unauthorized outgoing requests from the server to arbitrary external endpoints, compromising the security of systems utilizing the affected versions of Angular. The issue has been addressed in versions 22.0.0-rc.2, 21.2.15, 20.3.22, and 19.2.23.

Affected Version(s)

angular >= 22.0.0-next.0, < 22.0.0-rc.2 < 22.0.0-next.0, 22.0.0-rc.2

angular >= 21.0.0-next.0, < 21.2.15 < 21.0.0-next.0, 21.2.15

angular >= 20.0.0-next.0, < 20.3.22 < 20.0.0-next.0, 20.3.22
