AI-powered analysis for quick understanding
This vulnerability allows an attacker to create a specially crafted SVG file that can crash the SVGO application by overwhelming it with excessive memory usage. It affects specific versions of the SVGO library, and users need to be running those vulnerable versions to be at risk.
Technical Description
SVGO, short for SVG Optimizer, is a Node.js library and command-line application for optimizing SVG files. From version 2.1.0 to before version 2.8.1, from version 3.0.0 to before version 3.3.3, and before version 4.0.1, SVGO accepts XML with custom entities, without guards against entity expansion or recursion. This can result in a small XML file (811 bytes) stalling the application and even crashing the Node.js process with JavaScript heap out of memory. This issue has been patched in versions 2.8.1, 3.3.3, and 4.0.1.
