TypeScript : SCE mode disabled

Overview

SCE is disabled in the AngularJS application. This can lead to vulnerabilities.

Strict Contextual Escaping (SCE) is a mode in which AngularJS limits binding to display only trusted values. SCE allows you to make the code more secure by preventing attacks such as XSS, clickjacking, and so on.

To systematically block XSS, AngularJS treats all values ​​as untrusted by default. When binding untrusted values, AngularJS automatically launches security checks on them (sanitation, white list of names, depending on the context) or throws an exception when it can not guarantee the safety of the result. This behavior strongly depends on the context: HTML can be “disinfected”, but, for example, URLs do not.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) is one of the most common types of attacks on web applications. XSS attacks take seventh place in the “OWASP Top 10 2017” list of ten most significant vulnerabilities in web applications.
