attackers to have an unknown impact via a malformed SVG document.

Comment 4 Vincent Danen 2010-10-05 22:35:51 UTC 
This doesn't affect webkitgtk 1.2.5:

SVGGElement::rendererIsNeeded should return false when parent isn't SVG
 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45562

There is no renderIsNeeded() function in WebCore/svg/* (not in 1.2.3 either).
