📋 Description

This affects versions of the package angular from 1.3.0. A regular expression used to split the value of the ng-srcset directive is vulnerable to super-linear runtime due to backtracking. With a large carefully-crafted input, this can result in catastrophic backtracking and cause a denial of service.

Note:

This package is EOL and will not receive any updates to address this issue. Users should migrate to @angular/core.

  • npm/angular:>= 1.3.0, <= 1.8.3
  • maven/org.webjars.npm:angular:>= 1.3.0, <= 1.8.3
