A Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in `@angular/platform-server`'s DOM emulation dependency (`domino`) when serializing the content of `<noscript>` elements.

When rendering dynamic text content inside a `<noscript>` element via template bindings (such as `{{ value }}` or `[textContent]`), the template engine expects the browser to render the content safely. Under Server-Side Rendering (SSR), `domino` is configured with scripting enabled, meaning `<noscript>` is treated as a raw-text element.

However, `domino`'s serializer completely omitted `<noscript>` from the list of raw-text elements requiring closing-tag escaping during DOM serialization. As a result, any occurrence of `</noscript>` in the bound dynamic text was **never escaped under any circumstances**.

The unescaped closing tag was serialized directly into the output HTML (e.g. `<noscript></noscript><script>alert(1)</script></noscript>`). When parsed by a browser, it closes the `<noscript>` block early, allowing the injected `<script>` block to execute in the user's browser context, causing same-origin Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).

### Impact

This vulnerability allows an attacker to perform same-origin Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks against any user visiting an SSR-rendered page that binds user-controlled data inside a `<noscript>` element. This can lead to session hijacking, credentials theft, unauthorized actions on behalf of users, and defacement.

### Patched Versions

- 22.0.0-rc.2 - 21.2.16 - 20.3.24 - 19.2.25

### Workarounds

If you cannot immediately update your dependencies, you can:

- Avoid binding user-controlled values inside `<noscript>` elements. - Sanitize any user input placed inside `<noscript>` to explicitly strip closing `</noscript>` tags before passing it to the template.
