CWE-20  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade librsvg to version 2.40.7 or higher.

Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Input Validation. The _rsvg_node_poly_build_path function in rsvg-shapes.c in librsvg before 2.40.7 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds heap read) via an odd number of elements in a coordinate pair in an SVG document.
