CVE-2022-25869 is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability affecting all versions of the Angular, AngularJS.Core, and angularjs packages. The vulnerability is specific to the Internet Explorer browser and arises from insecure page caching, which allows the interpolation of <textarea> elements. This can enable attackers to inject and execute malicious scripts in the context of a user's session. The issue affects JavaScript, Java, and .NET implementations of AngularJS and is classified as CWE-79.

This repository is a minimal Proof-of-Concept (PoC) for CVE-2022-25869, an AngularJS <textarea> XSS vulnerability affecting Internet Explorer. The repository contains two main HTML files: 'index.html', which demonstrates the vulnerability, and 'other.html', which is used for navigation to trigger the bug. The exploit works by injecting a crafted AngularJS template payload (e.g., '{{ $eval.constructor('alert("Hacked!")')() }}') into a <textarea> element. When the user navigates away and then returns (using the browser's back button), AngularJS re-evaluates the template, leading to arbitrary JavaScript execution (XSS) in Internet Explorer. The PoC loads AngularJS 1.8.2 from a CDN, which is a vulnerable version. The README provides context and a link to a live demonstration. No detection scripts or fake elements are present; this is a functional PoC exploit for research and demonstration purposes.
