angularjsHow can I prevent XSS attacks when using AngularJS?


To prevent XSS attacks when using AngularJS, you should:

  1. Sanitize user input: Use the $sanitize service to sanitize all user input before it is displayed in the view. For example:
var userInput = $sanitize(userInput);
  1. Encode user input: You can use the $sce service to encode user input. This will ensure that any malicious code is rendered as text and not as HTML. For example:
var userInput = $sce.trustAsHtml(userInput);
  1. Disable HTML in bindings: Use the ng-bind-html attribute to disable HTML in bindings. This will prevent malicious code from being executed. For example:
<div ng-bind-html="userInput"></div>
  1. Disable unsafe JavaScript: Use the ng-non-bindable attribute to disable unsafe JavaScript in bindings. This will prevent malicious code from being executed. For example:
<div ng-non-bindable="userInput"></div>
  1. Validate user input: Validate user input to ensure that it does not contain malicious code. You can use the $filter service to validate user input. For example:
var userInput = $filter('validateInput')(userInput);
