Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure in the processing of CSS @font-face directives referencing local files via the file:// protocol. An attacker can determine the existence of sensitive files on the server by submitting crafted HTML and analyzing the application's response, such as memory exhaustion errors, which differ based on whether the targeted file exists. This is only exploitable if the attacker can supply unsanitized HTML input and system memory limits are configured in a way that allows observable differences in behavior.
