Regarding Squeeze and AFAICS, while the fix for CVE-2015-7557 is simple,
the CVE-2015-7558 is not trivial. It has been fixed by many changes in the
checks of cyclic references, using the new rsvg_acquire_node function
(i.e. https://git.gnome.org/browse/librsvg/commit/?id=a51919f7e1ca9c535390a746fbf6e28c8402dc61).

I cannot find info about how CVE-2015-7558 is exploitable, but I'd say
that is no-dsa. What do you think? What's the security team position
about it?

Cheers,

Santiago
