TuxCare keeps you ahead of threats by proactively tracking and patching new CVEs impacting AngularJS. View all security fixes available to date here.

Angular follows a regular release cadence with major releases every 6 months. Each major version is actively supported for 18 months, after which it reaches end-of-life

This means you will no longer get security updates for these versions from Google.

  • Upgrading Angular can cause breaking changes, often requiring deep analysis and refactoring that may disrupt established workflows.
  • Angular developers might face breaking API changes, deprecated features, or updated dependencies, which can lead to compatibility issues with legacy applications.

However, continuing to use unsupported Angular versions puts you at risk of security vulnerabilities.

Fortunately, with TuxCare, there is a
secure path forward.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 18 months — roughly six months of active support plus twelve months of LTS. With a major release every six months, versions age out fast: Angular 19 reached end of life in May 2026. ELS extends security coverage well past that 18-month window.

Angular 4 through 19. Coverage spans the interdependent @angular/* package set — core, common, compiler, forms, router, platform-browser, platform-server, CLI, compiler-cli, localize, service worker, and SSR — so the framework stays internally consistent.

Yes. TuxCare patches the version you run, which matters because Angular upgrades are chained — you can't skip majors, and each hop drags TypeScript, RxJS, Node, and Angular Material peer-dependency bumps with it. A four-version gap is a multi-sprint project.

No. Patched packages come from TuxCare's @els-angular registry, configured in .npmrc and aliased in package.json. Templates, decorators, DI, ng build, and ng serve all behave the same. The docs cover both SSR and non-SSR project layouts, and require npm 9.6.3 or later.

Yes, the packages are Docker compatible. Registry configuration and the auth token need to be available at the dependency-installation stage of the build — handle the token through your secrets manager rather than baking it into the image.

TuxCare targets 14 days from disclosure for critical and high-severity CVEs (CVSS 7.0+), 60 days for medium, and 90 days for low. Each patched release ships with SBOM and CycloneDX VEX data so scanners can tell a remediated build from the vulnerable upstream version.
