XSS via JQLite DOM manipulation functions in AngularJS

Summary

XSS may be triggered in AngularJS applications that sanitize user-controlled HTML snippets before passing them to JQLite methods like JQLite.prepend, JQLite.after, JQLite.append, JQLite.replaceWith, JQLite.append, new JQLite and angular.element.

Description

JQLite (DOM manipulation library that's part of AngularJS) manipulates input HTML before inserting it to the DOM in jqLiteBuildFragment.

One of the modifications performed expands an XHTML self-closing tag.

If jqLiteBuildFragment is called (e.g. via new JQLite(aString)) with user-controlled HTML string that was sanitized (e.g. with DOMPurify), the transformation done by JQLite may modify some forms of an inert, sanitized payload into a payload containing JavaScript - and trigger an XSS when the payload is inserted into DOM.

This is similar to a bug in jQuery htmlPrefilter function that was fixed in 3.5.0.

Proof of concept

const inertPayload = `` before adding it to the DOM, closing the style element early and reactivating `img`.
Patches
The issue is patched in JQLite bundled with angular 1.8.0. AngularJS users using JQuery should upgrade JQuery to 3.5.0, as a similar vulnerability affects jQuery <3.5.0.

Cross site scripting in Angular 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 "" elements in "" ones changes parsing behavior, leading to possibly unsanitizing code.

High severity vulnerability that affects angular In AngularJS before 1.7.9 the function merge() could be tricked into adding or modifying properties of Object.prototype using a __proto__ payload.

Affected versions: < 1.7.9

Changelog

Sourced from angular's changelog.

1.8.0 nested-vaccination (2020-06-01)

This release contains a breaking change to resolve a security issue which was discovered by Krzysztof Kotowicz(@koto); and independently by Esben Sparre Andreasen (@esbena) while performing a Variant Analysis of CVE-2020-11022 which itself was found and reported by Masato Kinugawa (@masatokinugawa).

Bug Fixes

• jqLite:
  • prevent possible XSS due to regex-based HTML replacement (2df43c)

Breaking Changes

jqLite due to:

• 2df43c: prevent possible XSS due to regex-based HTML replacement

JqLite no longer turns XHTML-like strings like <div /><span /> to sibling elements <div></div><span></span> when not in XHTML mode. Instead it will leave them as-is. The browser, in non-XHTML mode, will convert these to: <div><span></span></div>.

This is a security fix to avoid an XSS vulnerability if a new jqLite element is created from a user-controlled HTML string. If you must have this functionality and understand the risk involved then it is posible to restore the original behavior by calling

angular.UNSAFE_restoreLegacyJqLiteXHTMLReplacement();

But you should adjust your code for this change and remove your use of this function as soon as possible.

Note that this only patches jqLite. If you use jQuery 3.5.0 or newer, please read the jQuery 3.5 upgrade guide for more details about the workarounds.
