Bug 109699 – ASSERT(m_context->document()->documentElement() != m_context) in SVGLengthContext

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WORKSFORME
• Component: SVG

During SVG Fuzzing I've got an assertion faulire:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007ffff4d23494 in WebCore::SVGLengthContext::determineViewport (this=0x7fffffffc640, width=@0x7fffffffc4f8: 0, height=@0x7fffffffc4fc: 0)
    at /home/reni/Data/REPOS/webkit/Source/WebCore/svg/SVGLengthContext.cpp:298
298	    ASSERT(m_context->document()->documentElement() != m_context);



The test was:

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
	<animate attributeName="width" to="0%"></animate>
</svg>

Thanks Reni.

Looks like (percentage?) animation of <svg> attributes hits an invalid code path.

SVGLengthContext::determineViewport():

    // SVGLengthContext should NEVER be used to resolve width/height values for <svg> elements,
    // as they require special treatment, due the relationship with the CSS width/height properties.
    ASSERT(m_context->document()->documentElement() != m_context);


I'm not familiar with animations, but I'm guessing that special handling of <svg> targets may just not be implemented? I know Phil's been poking in this area so maybe he has more insight.

I cannot reproduce the issue anymore.
