CVE-2026-50168 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 8.2) affecting angular. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

Angular is a development platform for building mobile and desktop web applications using TypeScript/JavaScript and other languages. Prior to 22.0.0-rc.2, 21.2.15, 20.3.22, and 19.2.23, an issue in the @angular/platform-server package allows remote attackers to bypass host allowlist constraints and direct server-side outgoing requests to arbitrary external endpoints. This occurs due to a parser differential between the strict WHATWG URL parser use

Fixed in: 19.2.23, 20.3.22, 21.2.15

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 2.0.0

1. Check installed version

npm ls angular

2. UPGRADE to 19.2.23

npm install angular@">=19.2.23"

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 2.0.0

npm view angular versions npm install angular@"<2.0.0"

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
