Mermaid XY Charts are vulnerable to an infinite loop DoS
Impact
Mermaid XY Charts are vulnerable to an infinite loop DoS attack in the setXAxisRangeData(), when configuring an X-Axis with invalid parameters.
As each loop appends an element to an array, this would generally only cause an RangeError: Invalid array length to appear after a few seconds, but may cause the page/JavaScript process to crash due to memory exhaustion, depending on the environment.
