CVE-2026-33418: SVG Dimension Capping Bypass via XML Comment Injection in @dicebear/converter ensureSize()
(updated )
The ensureSize() function in @dicebear/converter used a regex-based approach to rewrite SVG width/height attributes, capping them at 2048px to prevent denial of service. This size capping could be bypassed by crafting SVG input that causes the regex to match a non-functional occurrence of <svg before the actual SVG root element. When the SVG is subsequently rendered via @resvg/resvg-js on the Node.js code path, it renders at the attacker-specified dimensions, potentially causing out-of-memory crashes.
