I am able to use ‘img-src: self data:’ but want to specify sources for data URLs also.  
Expected : ‘img-src: self data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCAyMCAyMCI+PHBhdGggZD0iTTEzLjQxOCA3Ljg1OWEuNjk1LjY5NSAwIDAxLjk3OCAwIC42OC42OCAwIDAxMCAuOTY5bC0zLjkwOCAzLjgzYS42OTcuNjk3IDAgMDEtLjk3OSAwbC0zLjkwOC0zLjgzYS42OC42OCAwIDAxMC0uOTY5LjY5NS42OTUgMCAwMS45NzggMEwxMCAxMWwzLjQxOC0zLjE0MXoiLz48L3N2Zz4=’
