CSS SVG on hover causes cursor bug

I’m trying to make the cursor change to a pointer while hovering over SVG’s on my website. But for some reason when I jump between them the cursor looks very weird. Any ideas what might be causing this and how to resolve it?

I’m using Firefox and I see two horizontal bars appearing when I go back and forth with my cursor over the three SVG’s on the right. The faster I move, the easier it is to see those horizonal lines.

Here’s a jsfiddle I put together showing the issue: https://jsfiddle.net/ztr4scfu/

.right > div > svg:hover {
  cursor: pointer;
  fill: orange;
}

I copied those SVG codes/paths from another website, and they do not have that issue. I do not have that issue when I remove the hover effect.

    What you can do to make it look like normal is

    .right:hover {
  cursor: default;
}

    I guess your issue is that the cursor between the icons is text, this should fix it.

    You can simplify your HTML

    <style>
  .bar {
    display: flex;
    align-items: justify;
    width: 300px;
    background: lightgreen;
  }
  svg {
    display: inline-block;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    background: pink;
  }
  svg+svg {
    margin-left: 1em;
  }
  svg:hover {
    cursor: pointer;
    fill: orange;
  }
</style>
