That's correct. CVE-2012-1102 has been assigned to the
perl XML-Atom issue.

Assuming the source of the slight confusion is this comment:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1025185/comments/13

and the CVE id in the references.

But from the context of that bug, comment c#13 was used just
to reference patch for same issue in perl XML-Atom (CVE-2012-1102)
issue, when searching a patch for inkscape.

Which later resulted into upstream inkscape commit:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/revision/11931

referenced in (subsequent) comment c#14:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1025185/comments/14

So CVE-2012-1102 identifier is for perl XML-Atom problem. And this
(same XXE problem) being present in inkscape should get a new
CVE id yet.

Thank you && Regards, Jan.
