EchelonGraph scoreMEDIUM confidence

This medium-severity CVE scores 4.7 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.2%, top 87% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

DiceBear is an avatar library for designers and developers. Prior to 9.4.3, @dicebear/core interpolates the rotate option into an SVG transform attribute without XML escaping in addRotate in packages/@dicebear/core/src/utils/svg.ts, while @dicebear/initials similarly emits fontSize and fontWeight without escaping in packages/@dicebear/initials/src/index.ts. Runtime callers can pass strings despite the numeric TypeScript types, break out of the attributes, and inject arbitrary SVG markup. Script can execute in the page origin when the generated avatar is inserted inline or served as image/svg+xml and opened directly, although exploitation requires an application to pass untrusted values into these normally developer-controlled options. This issue is fixed in @dicebear/core and @dicebear/initials version 9.4.3.
