@unlight Did we get any fix for this issue. We are facing the same issue. Loader-utils 0.2.17 version has critical vulnerability, so we need to update to latest version of version which is 2.3.0. When we tried to update, we are seeing below error. I see this dependency didn't update from last 6 years. Is there any temporary fix for the issue?

ERROR in .{projectpath}/spa/src/main.ts [INFO] Module build failed (from ./node_modules/angular2-template-loader/index.js): [INFO] Error: A valid query string passed to parseQuery should begin with '?'

Is there any alternate to angular2-template-loader. Which can help in the same manner this dependency works ?

We tried @ngTools but that is not helpful in large project. And Errors for angular2-template-loader are different for different projects. Somewhere it is giving parse error and some places it miss the emoji.js
