USN-4436-1 fixed a vulnerability in librsvg. The upstream fix caused a regression when parsing certain SVG files. This update backs out the fix pending further investigation.

It was discovered that librsvg incorrectly handled parsing certain SVG files. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause librsvg to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2017-11464) It was discovered that librsvg incorrectly handled parsing certain SVG files with nested patterns. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause librsvg to consume resources and crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2019-20446).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
