Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:LSummary
CVE-2024-8372 is a medium-severity Improper Validation of Unsafe Equivalence in Input (CWE-1289) vulnerability in Angularjs Angularjs. Its CVSS base score is 4.8 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 44th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data
Improper sanitization of the value of the 'srcset' attribute in AngularJS allows attackers to bypass common image source restrictions, which can also lead to a form of Content Spoofing https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/Content_Spoofing . This issue affects AngularJS versions 1.3.0-rc.4 and greater. Note:…

Security testing can detect unsafe equivalence flaws but does not prevent them at design time.
Application security requirements can mandate input validation rules that prevent unsafe equivalence checks.
Secure architecture principles include proper input validation and canonicalization to avoid unsafe equivalence.
Secure coding standards directly require correct validation of resource identifiers and equivalence checks.
