Web Content Manager set SVG to disabled by default

Configuration updates set SVG to disabled by default.

Since SVG files can post a security concern, beginning with CF208, the uploading of SVG image files is disabled by default unless already customized.

Note

If you still want to allow the uploading of SVG files to WCM, configure the following in WCM WCMConfigService service by using the WebSphere® Integrated Solutions Console:

imageresourcecmpnt.allowedmimetypes = image/gif,image/png,image/jpeg,image/jpg,image/jpe,image/jfif,image/bmp,image/x-bmp,image/x-bitmap,image/x-xbitmap,image/x-win-bitmap,image/x-windows-bmp,image/ms-bmp,image/x-ms-bmp,application/bmp,application/x-bmp,application/x-win-bitmap,image/ico,image/svg+xml,image/tiff,image/tif,image/webp

Note that you might have already added custom types. If that is the case, SVG image files are not disabled by default and no adjustment is necessary.

See the Help Center topic Web content authoring options for more information.
