SCA: security update for svgo (GHSA-2p49-hgcm-8545)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 445116

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- SVGO, short for SVG Optimizer, is a Node.js library and command-line application for optimizing SVG files.
From version 1.0.0 until versions 2.8.3, 3.3.4, and 4.0.2, the removeScripts plugin, named
removeScriptElement in versions 1 through 3, can leave executable content in optimized SVGs because it
does not remove namespaced or prefixed script elements such as <svg:script> and, in versions 3 and 4,
matches JavaScript URIs case sensitively. Applications that process untrusted SVG input with this plugin
enabled and serve the result can allow scripts to execute when another user opens the SVG, exposing local
storage or cookies. This issue is fixed in versions 2.8.3, 3.3.4, and 4.0.2. (CVE-2026-73650)

Solution

Update the svgo library and its related packages to version 2.8.3 or later.
