How to fix?

Upgrade @dicebear/converter to version 9.4.0 or higher.

Overview

@dicebear/converter is a SVG Converter for DiceBear

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling via the ensureSize function. An attacker can cause excessive memory allocation by supplying a crafted SVG file with extremely large width and height attributes to the conversion process, potentially leading to denial of service. This is only exploitable if untrusted or user-supplied SVGs are processed by the conversion functions.

Workaround

This vulnerability can be mitigated by validating and sanitizing the width and height attributes of any untrusted SVG input before passing it to the converter.
