The first high-severity CVE since AngularJS End of Life has been officially reported. For AngularJS Never-Ending Support (formerly XLTS) clients, we found this CVE last year and issued a fix immediately. For all others, as Google’s official AngularJS long-term support partner, we encourage you to either:

1. Migrate off of AngularJS, or
2. Contact HeroDevs about how you can keep your AngularJS environment secure, compliant, and compatible indefinitely.
