Bug Fixes

SVG MIME Type Correction

Fixed an issue where SVG files might not always be assigned the correct MIME type. This release ensures that SVG files are consistently recognized with the MIME type image/svg+xml, which improves reliability when:

  • Uploading SVG files through the admin panel
  • Serving SVG files to end users
  • Processing SVG files through the API

This fix prevents potential display issues, download problems, or security filtering that could occur when incorrect MIME types are assigned to SVG content.

New Features

No new features were added in this release.

Security Updates

No specific security fixes were included in this release, though ensuring proper MIME type handling for SVG files can help prevent certain security-related issues in browsers that rely on correct content type identification.

Performance Improvements

No specific performance improvements were included in this release.

Impact Summary

This release focuses on a single bug fix that ensures SVG files are always assigned the correct MIME type (image/svg+xml). While small in scope, this fix is important for applications that work with SVG files, as it prevents potential issues with file uploads, downloads, and rendering in browsers.

The change improves the reliability of Payload's file handling system, particularly for vector graphics content. Users who frequently work with SVG files will benefit from more consistent behavior when uploading and serving these files.
