When CairoSVG processes an SVG file, it can make requests to the inner host and different outside hosts.
Linux, Debian (Buster) LTS core 5.10 / Parrot OS 5.1 (Electro Ara), python 3.9
2.6.0
A specially crafted SVG file that loads an external resource from a URL. Remote attackers could exploit this vulnerability to cause a scan of an organization's internal resources or a DDOS attack on external resources. It looks like this bug can affect websites and cause request forgery on the server.

When CairoSVG processes an SVG file, it can send requests to external hosts and wait for a response from the external server after a successful TCP handshake. This will cause the server to hang. It seems this bug can affect websites or servers and cause a complete freeze while uploading this PoC file to the server.

(without timeout server will hang forever)Specially crafted SVG file that opens /proc/self/fd/1 or /dev/stdin results in a hang with a tiny PoC file. Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a crafted SVG file. It seems this bug can affect websites or servers and cause a complete freeze while uploading this PoC file to the server.
