CVE-2018-7751
The svg_probe function in libavformat/img2dec.c in FFmpeg through 3.4.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Infinite Loop) via a crafted XML file.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.24%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
