Comment 3 Murray McAllister 2014-06-26 05:49:11 UTC
Upstream announcement:

http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-announce/2014-June/000155.html

This includes a "(bug 65839) SECURITY: Prevent external resources in SVG files" security fix.

Alex Xu in the Gentoo bug (https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=515138) suggests this may only allow a pingback, and that some versions of Firefox probably will not load it anyway.
