What is CVE-2022-41343?
The vulnerability in Dompdf is tied to the improper URI validation in the registerFont function within FontMetrics.php. This flaw allows attackers to exploit the font registration mechanism through the use of a @font-face rule, enabling remote file inclusion. By bypassing expected validation checks, malicious users can potentially manipulate the system and gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or execute arbitrary code.
Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
