Description
The issue allows
script elements in SVG sources, which can lead to XSS attacks in HTML output. This impacts websites that publish HTML drafts and RFCs.Recommendations
For versions prior to 3.12.4, update to version 3.12.4 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider scraping
script elements from SVG files if the SVG source is self-contained within the XML. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
