Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Dompdf (Packagist dompdf/dompdf) versions 2.0.2 up to but not including 2.0.3 are vulnerable. A mismatch between how Dompdf and php-svg-lib parse the href attribute of SVG image tags lets an attacker with an SVG file supplied to Dompdf make it request arbitrary URLs using arbitrary protocols. The source says that on PHP versions before 8.0.0 this can lead to unsafe unserialization, with possible file deletion or remote code execution. Upgrade to dompdf/dompdf 2.0.3, the fixed version.
