@angular/service-worker: Sensitive Header Leakage on Cross-Origin Redirects in Angular Service Worker
GitHub lists this reviewed advisory for @angular/service-worker, @angular/service-worker, @angular/service-worker, @angular/service-worker. Published version ranges and source prerequisites are shown below; this is not an inspection of a visitor’s application.
This report has not inspected your inventory, configuration, deployed build, reachability or evidence. A catalog listing and a severity score do not establish exposure or compromise.

The affected context

@angular/service-worker
source listed>= 22.0.0-next.0, < 22.0.1
An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the `@angular/service-worker` package of the Angular framework. When the Service Worker fetches assets, it preserves metadata (such as headers) from the original request. However, on cross-origin redirects, the Service Worker fails to strip sensitive headers, violating the Fetch redirect algorithm. This allows a remote attacker to obtain sensitive credentials (e.g., `Authorization` tokens, `Proxy-Authorization` credentials, or session cookies) by triggering a cross-origin redirect to an untrusted external origin. ### Impact If an application configured with the Angular Service Worker fetches assets with credential headers (such as `Authorization` header), and one of those requests is redirected to a different origin, the Service Worker will forward those headers to the new origin. This exposes critical credentials and session identifiers to unauthorized third-party servers. ### Attack Preconditions For this vulnerability to be exploitable: 1. **Vulnerable Configuration:** The application must utilize the `@angular/service-worker` package to fetch assets. 2. **Credentialed Requests:** The application must attach sensitive request

03 / Response
What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. GitHub Advisory Database
A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
04 / Limits
What this report cannot establish
- Customer inventory, deployment, reachability and exploitation have not been inspected.
05 / Provenance
Sources you can inspect
Each assertion retains its source. Mirrored records may repeat one underlying publisher; additional links are not independent corroboration.
