Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stems from web-accessible demo/debug scripts (debugger.php, demo.php, setup.php) lacking proper authentication checks in versions <0.6.2. These scripts allowed unauthorized access to sensitive functionality via IP-based checks alone. The fix (commit cc06008) introduced authentication via auth_ok()
checks. However, these are top-level procedural scripts rather than discrete functions, and no specific library functions in the dompdf core were directly implicated. The exposure occurred at the application integration level via included demo files, not through identifiable API functions.
