Steps

Go to your Confluence server and find the directory where Confluence was installed.
Edit <confluence-install-directory>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/mime.types.
Add a line: image/svg+xml svg svgz.
Restart the Confluence application server.

Result

When inserting a reference to an SVG image in the Confluence editor using Image Browser, the SVG image is now displayed instead of a link to the image attachment.

Trevan Householder has contributed a more recent experience on Confluence 5.8.17

However, adding that line to mime.types did not do the trick for us. (yes, we restarted.)

We did, however, find this trick to make it work:

Upon editing the Confluence page:

Type '!' then select the attached SVG.
It renders inline.
Adjust the image size as needed.
