CVE-2026-40853
waiting for further signalsZero needs more public information before it can validate it.GHSA-6rfp-fjvf-86m8 ↗EUVD-2026-123472 ↗
description
Apache Batik through version 1.19 can emit unencoded SVGFont metadata, creating a cross-site scripting risk. An attacker who can supply font metadata to an affected processing workflow may cause script-capable content to reach users of the generated output.
mitigation
Upgrade Apache Batik to version 1.20. Until upgraded, do not process untrusted SVGFont inputs and prevent untrusted generated SVG content from being served in script-executing browser contexts.
outcome
Contextual, not validated: no deterministic check could cover this one, and no technique passed our review.
