Summary

CVE-2023-41318 is a vulnerability affecting matrix-media-repo, a multi-domain media repository for the Matrix chat ecosystem. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability by uploading a malicious media file that is served with `Content-Disposition: inline` upon download. This can allow the execution of scripts embedded in SVG content. The issue has been fixed in version 1.3.0 with commits 77ec235 and bf8abdd. It is recommended for operators to upgrade to v1.3.0 promptly, but if unable to do so, overriding the `Content-Disposition` header can serve as a temporary workaround.
