NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream librsvg package and not the librsvg package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The rsvg_pattern_fix_fallback function in rsvg-paint_server.c in librsvg2 2.40.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via a crafted svg file.
