CVE-2024-8372Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Content spoofing via crafted srcset candidate list

Published Sep 9, 2024 · Updated Nov 3, 2025

Improper srcset sanitization in Google AngularJS 1.3.0-rc.4 and later allows remote attackers to display images from blocked sources. The ngSrcset, ngAttrSrcset, and ngPropSrcset logic accepts a crafted candidate list containing an invalid descriptor followed by a URL outside the configured trusted-source pattern. Exploitation requires attacker-controlled data to reach one of these directives and results in arbitrary external image display or content spoofing.
