Sources and claim methodology

Upstream source description

pdfmake 0.3.8 before 0.3.12 fails to apply the setLocalAccessPolicy() restriction to images referenced inside SVG content, allowing attackers to read blocked local files. Attackers supplying a document definition can add an SVG image href pointing to a local path, embedding restricted file contents in the generated PDF.
