Summary
Angular and the @angular/router npm package fail to require auxiliary outlet URL segments to match their configured routes during Node.js server-side rendering. Crafted requests with multiple unconfigured empty-path outlet groups repeatedly evaluate route configuration and allocate memory (CWE-400), so an unauthenticated remote attacker can exhaust the heap or CPU and terminate an SSR worker.

Description from the CNA
Angular is a development platform for building mobile and desktop web applications using TypeScript/JavaScript and other languages. Prior to 20.3.33, 21.2.25, and 22.2.1, @angular/router in Node.js server-side rendering fails to require auxiliary outlet URL segments to match routes configured for their outlet names. Crafted requests containing multiple unconfigured empty-path outlet groups can repeatedly evaluate the route configuration, construct duplicate ActivatedRouteSnapshot trees, execute canMatch guards and resolvers, and copy route parameters and queryParams for each outlet. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exhaust the Node.js heap or CPU and terminate an SSR worker when SSR is enabled, a route level contains an empty-path route or named outlet, upstream infrastructure forwards the request target, and the worker has a constrained heap. The allocation is transient rather than a persistent leak, and client-side SPAs and build-time prerendering are not affected. This issue is fixed in versions 20.3.33, 21.2.25, and 22.2.1.
