CVE-2026-101896.

Disclosure summary

A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability was identified in `@angular/router` when Server-Side Rendering (SSR) is enabled on Node.js (V8). When `@angular/router` parses incoming request URLs, it extracts path segments, matrix parameters, and child outlets into plain JavaScript objects (`Record`). When matrix parameter names or outlet names are numeric strings (such as `/a;990;2522`), the V8 JavaScript engine interprets them as array-indexed properties rather than named properties. Under V8's internal property-storage heuristics, setting numeric keys on an initially empty object causes V8 to allocate a dense array backing store (`HOLEY_ELEMENTS`) sized to the maximum index rather than falling back to sparse dictionary storage. Specifically, assigning sequential or moderately large numeric keys (like `990` followed by `2522`) causes V8 to allocate a contiguous backing store of ~2,522 pointers (~20 KB to 25 KB of heap) for a single 11-byte segment. Because each segment in a URL path allocates its own independent `parameters` object, an attacker can craft URLs with repeated numeric matrix parameters to achieve an asymmetric memory amplification factor of approximately **~350x**. ### Impa
